Ordination to the priesthood of Fr. Joseph Anane

Monday, January 18, 2016
On Saturday, 19 December, together with 19 young men of the Archdiocese of Lomé, Fr. Joseph Anane, a Ghanaian Comboni, was ordained priest. The celebration took place at the parish of St Lucy, Baguida, in the presence of hundreds of the faithful, priests and friends of those being ordained. Archbishop Denis Amuzu-Dzakpah, emphasised in his homily the service of the priesthood in this Holy Year of Mercy: to be the tender face of the Father for every person the priest meets. This is what we, as the TGB Province, wish Fr. Joseph who is already appointed to his mission in Ethiopia. The day after his ordination, Sunday 20 December, Fr. Joseph celebrated his first Mass at Cacaveli, in the community of the Provincial house where he did his missionary service.
