In Kigeme diocese prayer is so important that the former Bishop,
Augustine Mvunabandi, recruited a staff member called Margaret,
as she had a specific prayer ministry. She had a small prayer room in
the diocesan offices where she spent every day in prayer for
the work of the diocese listening to God, sharing what she has
perceived and interceding for the work of the Lord. She has now
retired, but her work is carried on by seven mostly young Anglican nuns,
who pray daily for the work of the Church. Can we learn from this?
