MESSAGE OF CONDOLENCE
I am deeply saddened by the tragic fire incident at Utumishi Girls School, Gilgil, that has led to the painful loss of innocent young lives. On behalf of my family and the Christian fraternity, I extend my heartfelt condolences to the bereaved families, the students, teachers, and the entire school community during this moment of sorrow and grief.
The loss of such promising daughters is heartbreaking and difficult to comprehend. We join you in mourning and prayer, asking God to grant strength, comfort, and healing to all those affected by this tragedy.
“Blessed are those who mourn, for they shall be comforted.” — Matthew 5:4
May the souls of the departed rest in eternal peace, and may God surround the injured and grieving families with His love and consolation.
Rt. Rev. Bishop Emeritus John Okude
