He furthermore added, “I would like to tell you about the church that has nurtured me, because I used to come here with Lapwony Ocan. The church does not support the politician, but the church has to support the mission. I have seen this new church architectural design plan for the church.
I have not been appointed to the committee of this construction of this church, but I am appointing myself to be one of the committees, I will come to attend the planning meeting that is going to take place.” Norbert Mao stressed.
Norbert Mao argued, we cannot avoid political leaders as we have conflict amidst us, I pledge to support calls to rehabilitate street children, because in Heaven there are no street children. I see a new church architectural design that accommodates rooms for children rehabilitation, that is very welcoming.
