At the occasion of the 25th Anniversary of St Lawrence Girls Catholic Secondary School, Bishop Musikuwa has invited all people to look back at the history of the school with gratitude to God, as it is suicidal for believers to neglect God when things are going their way. The remarks were made during Eucharistic celebration marking 25 years of existence for St Lawrence secondary school, the sole girls’ boarding school both in the Diocese and the whole lower Shire valley. Established in the year 1999, the school has remained the only sign of the Church’s commitment to promoting girl child education and so impact their life. The school is one of the long standing signature left behind by the late Bishop Mukhori who had unmatched passion in caring for his flock. Bishop Musikuwa then called all people to remember different people who have contributed to the establishment of the school, of particular mention is the family of Mr and Mrs Manda who generously donated the land on which the school stands today. “Now the ball is in our hands. All of us need to reflect on how much we ourselves have given and benefited others. Remarked Bishop Musikuwa. The celebration is being held at St Lawrence Girls Catholic Secondary School in Chikwawa. Honourable Patricia Kaliati is gracing the occasion as the Guest of Honour.
