Following the announcement by ECM that the Catholic Church should hold prayers for Peace, Reconciliation and Unity in Malawi, the Office of His Grace the Archbishop has asked me to announce that here in the Archdiocese of Blantyre, these prayers will be held on 19th October at Limbe Cathedral and Mass shall start at 9: 30am.

During the Mass, some Sisters belonging to the Congregation of Sisters of Our Lady will take their perpetual vows. Please take note that because of this development, Holy Childhood Mass (Misa ya Ana) that was scheduled to take place at Nguludi Parish has been postponed and tentatively moved to November 16th. Please take note of this change and inform the Children so that no child travels to Nguludi on the day. Further announcements will be made in due course.

Any inconveniences caused because of these changes are greatly regreted. All Priests, the Religious and the Lay faithful are requested and encouraged to plan to attend this event. Fr A. M. CHAIMA, PASTORAL SECRETARY

Archdiocese of Blantyre wishes to congratulate boys and girls who have passed Malawi School Certificate of Education (MSCE) from catholic schools under the archdiocese.

Below is the list of candidates who have scored not more than 20 points in four of our schools.
