TURA: Tura Bishop, Reverend Andrew R Marak along with priests and the religious faithful of Tura Diocese expressed deep sadness over the death of Archbishop Dominic Jala.
According to a release, a requiem mass for the archbishop was held at Sacred Heart Parish shortly after the incident on October 15.
During the Eucharistic event, the bishop extended his condolence to the priests and the religious faithful of the Archdiocese of Shillong.
He also said that the Jala was truly respected and admired by many not only for being a capable leader but also for his good sense of humor and friendly attitude.
“The late Bishop had a doctorate degree in liturgy. His leadership ability and commitment to the church was known worldwide. Therefore his untimely death is a great loss for the church” said Bishop Andrew.
Bishop Andrew, however, asked the people not to lose hope as death is not the end but the beginning of new life.
“Our human hope may waver because of the death of our Bishop but we also believe that where human hope ends, there God’s hope begins” he said, while praying for the late Archbishop’s eternal rest.
