Moshi priests

The
Need

Most of the people of Moshi Diocese have the mentality that a priest is everything. That means, once someone is a priest, he can solve whichever kind of problem even those which are out of his field. That is why a secular knowledge on various subjects is needed for priests so as to help such kind of people.

 

Rt. Rev. Ludovick Joseph Minde, ALCP/OSS, bishop of the Catholic Diocese of Moshi, is praying and planning to send four priests to Rome for further studies.  When they complete their studies, they will be of greater help and support in the Diocese of Moshi as well as to the Church in Tanzania.  The proposal is:

 

  1. One priest will study Spiritual Theology and Formation with a goal of teaching courses in the Major Seminary;
  2. A second priest will study Philosophy with the goal of  being a Formator and Lecturer in the Seminaries (Philosophicum) of the Bishops of Tanzania;
  3. The third priest will go for at least two years of further studies to specialize in Pastoral Clinical Counseling.   He will then serve in the hospitals as Chaplain and also in the parishes.  Many faithful are so much in need of Spiritual Counseling;
  4. A fourth priest will go for further studies in Education to earn a Bachelor degree with the goal of serving in the Diocesan Secondary Schools as the Headmaster.
