“We witnessed the colourful episcopal appointment of Dr Ida Betty Odinga as an honorary canon, with her assignment to the Stall of St. Teresa of Calcutta, the Patron Saint of the ‘Wretched of the Earth.’ This recognition reflects her commitment to the cause of humanity, her resilience in uplifting the downtrodden, and her unwavering love for others,” Gladys Wanga stated.
“To all the newly installed deacons, ordained priests, and diocesan and honorary canons, we wish you all the best along with God’s blessings and guidance as you embark on your important spiritual assignments. Congratulations!”
