Archbishop Banda commends Catholic Women for raising K8.1m for Seminarian Fund

Archbishop Alick Banda praised the Catholic Women’s Organisation of the Archdiocese of Lusaka for collecting K8.1 million for the 2026 Seminarian Fund. The collection took place during a presentation event held under the theme "Building Vocations through Love and Sacrifice."

The Catholic Women Association from the Diocese of Mzuzu in Malawi attended the event to witness the fundraising efforts. During his homily, Archbishop Banda encouraged women to continue supporting and sustaining priestly vocations. He stated that priestly callings are gifts to families, communities, and the entire Church rather than private matters. He also noted that true meaning in life is found through selfless service and generosity toward others.
