2 1.2. Sacrament of Marriage: We preached the importance of marriage whenever we get a chance to instruct especially during we go for Jumuiya mass (small Christian Community Mass). As a result, many responded and received the sacrament of marriage. So, those who received the sacrament of marriage are totally 55 couples (Ndoa za pamoja) We too helped those who were not afford to have celebration and those who live without sacrament for many years to get the sacrament of marriage.

7 2. Constructions 2.1 Construction in different places Construction work of the new church in the parish: By the grace and guidance of god the father, we have been continuing the construction of the new church. We have no benefactors, it is people themselves are building this new church by the generous heart and hard work. And this year we have done many works in order to complete church work Glass painted with pictures 7

And we also sent a request letter of announcing as quasi parish to His Eminency Polycarp Cardinal Pengo and he also accepted our request whole heartedly Construction of the presbytery in Tegeta A One of our substations called Tegeta A in which we have started building presbytery house by the blessing of His Eminence Polycarp Cardinal Pengo on the day of confirmation for the children. 11
12 2.4. Construction of the new house for catechists & Office in the substation of Msakuzi This is the new substation which was started in the year There is no church, we have only small hut in which we celebrate mass on Sundays. This year we could buy a land which is near by the church campus and we built a small house. Now almost we have completed and catechist of this substation started staying in this new house and also we built an office for catechist. 3. OTHER DIFFERENT ACTIVITIES 3.1. Seminar We conducted seminars for different topics and for the different group of people. These seminars were conducted both for spiritual and for the other developments Seminar on Leadership Leadership in the church is more important. We could see in small Christian groups (Jumuiya) and in the level of substation that the leaders failed to do their responsibilities. It is because they did not know what they supposed to do as a leader in the level of small Christian group or substation or in the level of parish. And so we decided to conduct a seminar on leadership and all the leaders from substations also were invited. And many participated and it was really a fruitful for everyone. It 12
13 was conducted by Chairman of the parish Mr. Antipacy Shinyambala on Seminar on Liturgy We conducted seminary on liturgy because many of the people do not know the importance of the liturgy. So we decided to have a seminar and we invited resourced person Rev.Fr. Paul Chiwangu (Liturgist, Tanzania Episcopal Conference). It was held on
14 Seminar for men and women groups (Uwaka, Wawata) We conducted seminar for men and women groups of the parish in order to encourage them and also to inspire them to responsible member in the church. We invited Rev.Fr. Nicholaus Ngowi Cpps. It was held on Seminar for Youth We conducted seminar for all the youth in the parish. Youth were not very much in the parish activities and so we decided to have seminar for youth so that they may be inspired and to know their part in the church. We invited Rev.Fr. Nicholaus Ngowi Cpps for the seminar and it was held on Pastoral Activities in the schools We could see the importance of spiritual nourishment for the students in the school. We celebrate mass for the students so that they may be nourished by the word of God. 14
15 Teachers College Secondary School 3.3. Picnic with Catechist We too consider and respect the works of the catechist. Really they do their best by teaching catechism to the children and liturgical activities. And so after the busy schedule of Easter celebration, we went for picnic with all the catechists and some of the leaders also joined with us. 15
16 3.4. Parish council election Once in three years, in the catholic church of Tanzania, there will be election starting from small Christian group till to the parish level. According to the instruction and regulation of the diocese, we started election from small Christian group level till the parish councilors Election for Parish Council On 1 st of May, we had election for parish council which was held after the Sunday mass.
