Archbishop Philip Anyolo Subira of the Catholic Archdiocese of Nairobi in Kenya has urged the staff at St. Matia Mulumba Mission Hospital in his Metropolitan See to exercise patience in handling the sick at the facility.
In his Tuesday, September 5 homily during the opening and consecration of the Chapel of the health facility in his Metropolitan See, Archbishop Anyolo said, “As we bless this place, we are encouraging all those people including doctors and nurses who work here to be patient with the sick because in patience comes health and new life.”
He added, “The moment a sick person comes to this facility for treatment, know that you have handed that person over to God Himself who is the overall doctor.”
The Kenyan Catholic Church leader advocated for a positive attitude, saying, “Let us know the attitude you have towards the sick and their families.”
“Attitude is manifested in the saving works of spiritual mercy,” he further said, underscoring the need for the staff at St. Matia Mulumba Mission Hospital to be guided by a positive attitude.
