Bishop Maurício Agostinho Camuto of Angola’s Catholic Diocese of Caxito is advocating for Parish-based magazines, aimed at enlightening community members on current affairs.
Addressing journalists attached to St. Mark Parish Magazine on the sidelines of his pastoral visit on Monday, April 29, Bishop Camuto emphasized the need to report the truth.
“We call on the parishes to create teams for the parish magazine and for these magazines to be able to report not only on parish activities, but also on activities linked to the area, linked to the locality, so that we can bring some communities out of the shadows,” he said.
Bishop Camuto called upon reporters to denounce wrongdoing in their respective communities, saying, “If we don't put our finger on the pulse so that we can denounce what's wrong here, things will never get better.”
“And it's our job, it's our mission to help the community by proclaiming the Word, the Gospel, denouncing what isn't right, isn't good and doesn't meet the Gospel that we proclaim,” the Local ordinary of Caxito added.
