WE FORGIVE THE KILLERS OF FR. TANKO BUT LET THEIR CONSCIENCE JUDGE THEM! – BISHOP HAMMAWA

The Catholic Diocese of Jalingo today unveiled and dedicated a pilgrimage centre in memory of late Fr. David Tanko who was brutally murdered at the wake of the violence and crime that bedeviled Southern Taraba.

In his homily the Bishop, Most Rev. Charles M. Hammawa, made it clear that the dedicated ground would become a site of prayer through the intercession of the Blessed Virgin Mary. The dedicated prigrimage centre is located at St. Peter’s Parish Amadu.

Through the prayers offered at the ground, we pray that the Lord would redeem Taraba State for every violence’ the bishop added.

May Mary the Queen of peace intercede for us all…
Amen!
