MARIAN RALLY 2010

The Marian Rally organised yearly in the month of Our Mother Mary by Accra District 4 Ladies Auxiliary and Battalion 2 Commandery was hosted this year by Queen of Peace Ladies Auxiliary. Sisters and Brothers from the seven Auxiliaries in the District and their Commanderies attended in their numbers. The participants marched while praying the rosary and singing for about three and a half km around Madina township from IPS junction to the Church premises. The theme "Blessed are you among Women" was part of the Homily of the day when Holy Mass was celebrated. Here we see some pictures from the event.

Sacrament of Matrimony

Saturday 8th May 2010 was a joyous occasion for our own Brother Ikenna Uzonwanne and Miss Charity Ganye. The wedding ceremony was splended and the reception was enjoyed by all. Brothers and Sisters turned out in their numbers and full military honours were accorded them. Below we see two pictures from the day. Family and friends came from as far as Nigeria and Wa in the Upper West Region of Ghana to celebrate with them.

5TH ANNIVERSARY PROGRAMMES

VARIOUS ACTIVITIES HAVE BEEN PLANNED TO CELEBRATE THE 5TH ANNIVERSARY

On the 18th of April at the Holy Rosary Catholic Church, Adenta and on the 16th May at the St. Monica's Catholic Church Adjiringano, we held outreach programmes dealing with the topic "Healthy Life Styles". The first talk was given by Dr.Siriboe and the second by Dr. Kplomedo. Parishioners were very pleased with the information given and there were questions asked.

On the 29th of May we had a wonderful and exciting trip to the Ho Leprosarium, in the Volta Region to make a donation to the patients of cash and gift items.
We visited Bishop Lodonu at his residence.

On the 30th of May, we went to Tokokoe also in the Volta Region to make a presentation of an Altar for the local Catholic Church there. This was received by Bishop Lodonu who was the main celebrant. Fifty four Brothers and Sisters attended the programme.

Also in August we organised a talk on Breast, Cervical and Prostate Cancer. The resource person came from Ridge Hospital, Accra. Parishioners attended in their numbers and many questions were asked. All in all this was very successful.

A blood donation exercise was also organised by the Order at the Parish. Many youth donated blood for the Korle-Bu Teaching Hospital Blood Bank and the whole Parish was involved.

On the 7th of May 2010 our Auxiliary will be five years old and to kick-start the Anniversary, we attended Holy Mass  on the 5th of May. Here we see group pictures of the Brothers, Cadets and Juniors who attended the Holy Mass.
