- On May 25, representatives of Prison Fellowship Malaysia (PFM) Sandakan
Chapter paid a courtesy call to Rt Rev Datuk Julius Dusin Gitom. Rev Amos Eng,
Cecilia Kimin and Joseph Lee dropped by St Mary's Cathedral, Sandakan, to
officially invite Rt Rev Datuk Julius to be a guest of honour at PFM's 'Walk
For Jesus (WFJ) 2017' event on Aug 27.
Besides
presenting the invitation letter and WFJ t-shirt, the trio also sat down to
talk about ongoing issues related to the city, state and country that concerned
the Christian community as a whole. Rt Rev Datuk Julius shared his thoughts
concerning those issues and agreed that the Christian community should now,
more than ever, come together to pray in unity.
Even
though Rt Rev Datuk Julius is unable to attend WFJ due to other prior pastoral
commitments, he is fully supportive of the event and PFM's fundraising efforts
through the sale of WFJ t-shirts as well as the circulation of donation cards
among the members of the Catholic Church.
WFJ is
a prayer walk organised every two years by PFM. It is held simultaneously in 25
towns and cities across Sabah. Its purpose is to gather believers to pray for
the needs of their town and country, as well as raise awareness and funds for
PFM. PFM is a Christian ministry that aims to bring hope to prisoners,
ex-prisoners, their families and those affected by crime.
