Comments
The parish is run by old age pensioners who are responsible for their families because of unemployment and orphans caused by HIV and AIDS epidemic.
The youth of this area are working in urban areas and they are the parishioners of those areas.
Most of St Mary Magdalene Guild members are not working hence we have a big number of not good standing.
Some members of Mother's Union are also members of the Preacher's guild and all members of St Bernard Mizeki are members of Preacher's guild. This might be the reason for failing other dues and also the full support of their children hence we have big numbers of not good standing.
