Both Fr Onuorah and Fr Nduefuna are requesting help to make accommodation ready for Bishop Morgan's planned visit in November:
1. FR ONUORAH'S APPEALGreetings in Our Lord Jesus Christ my dear brother... Happy feast of St Bartholomew the Apostle today. Hope you are fine today.
Last time we spoke about the priests resistance and agreed to roof the Church first unless we get divine assistance from somewhere else for it specifically. But it happened that Bishop Paul Morgan will visit us here Nigeria from 6th November to 17th November, 2026. It was Yesterday that I got to know the actual date for his visit. The priests agreed yesterday that he will come to my chapel Orlu to bless my 10 years priestly anniversary and to give confirmation to some faithful. In that case he will be in my chapel in Orlu on 7th November being Saturday and sleep over to offer the Sacraments on Sunday 8th November before conducting a retreat for the priests. The priests residence under construction is the house that he and other priests should reside during the visit because where I am squatting in a poultry farm cannot accommodate the bishop and the other priests during the visit.
So my greatest challenge now is that the priests residence needs to be decked, roofed and completed possibly before November 7th 2026. Only God knows the possibility .
Below is the estimate for the decking:
300 pieces of wooden boards at N3,500 each = N1,050,000,
250 polines at N900 each = N225,000,
200 bamboos at N2,000 each = N400,000,
500 lengths of 12mm rods at N9,000 each = N 4,500,000,
100 lengths of 16mm rods at N 16,000 each = N1,600,000,
200 bags of cement at N 12,700 each bag = N 2,540,000,
75 tonnes of chippings = N 1,740,000,
12 trips of sand at N 65,000 each trip = N 780,000,
Paying for works/ labour = N 2,000,000,
Piping both for electrical and plumbing pipes = N1,800,000.
Total = N 16,635,000
Thank you so much as we keep praying God's divine Providence.
God bless.
Fr Joseph Onuorah.

2. FR NDUEFUNA'S APPEALST. PIUS X CATHOLIC FIDELITY MISSION, NIGERIA.
MARIA VIRGO FIDELIS PRIORY, ANAKU.
AN APPEAL FOR FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE TOWARDS THE FORTHCOMING PASTORAL VISIT OF HIS EXCELLENCY, MOST REV. PAUL MORGAN.
Dear Friends and Benefactors in Christ,
Greetings to you in the peace and charity of Our Lord Jesus Christ.
Two years ago, we were deeply privileged and grateful to have welcomed His Excellency, Most Rev. Paul Morgan, to Nigeria for a pastoral visit.
His presence among us was a great source of spiritual encouragement and fatherly consolation to our priests, seminarians, and faithful.
By the grace of God, it has been agreed that His Excellency will return to Nigeria for another pastoral visit. This forthcoming visit will have particular spiritual importance for our mission, as the bishop is expected to fulfil three important pastoral functions:
1. To administer the Sacrament of Confirmation to some of our faithful who have been preparing to receive this important sacrament;
2. To preach an Ignatian retreat for our priests and seminarians, providing them with a precious opportunity for spiritual renewal, priestly sanctification, and deeper formation in their vocation; and
3. To confer the necessary ministries upon one of our seminarians as part of his continued preparation for the reception of Major Orders and eventual priestly ministry.
We consider this visit a significant grace for our mission and an opportunity to strengthen the spiritual life and formation of our priests, seminarians, and faithful.
However, receiving the Bishop and the other guests we are expecting, including priests from different parts of Africa, also places considerable practical and financial responsibilities upon us. We therefore humbly turn to our friends, benefactors, and generous supporters for assistance.
Among the immediate needs are the following:
1. Renewal of the Priory Solar-Battery System
The solar power system serving the Priory at Anaku has become increasingly unstable because the existing battery capacity can no longer adequately sustain the system. Since reliable electricity is essential for receiving and accommodating our visitors, we consider the replacement of the batteries a matter of priority. The estimated cost of a suitable and sustainable battery system is ₦6,000,000.
2. Hospitality and Feeding
We shall also be responsible for the feeding and hospitality of the Bishop and other guests throughout their stay. In order to provide suitable meals, particularly for our foreign visitors, we intend to engage the services of a competent chef who can properly manage the kitchen and prepare wholesome meals appropriate to our guests.
3. Security
Considering the number and importance of our visitors, adequate security will also be necessary. We intend to provide security personnel who will be available day and night throughout the period of the pastoral visit, ensuring the safety and well-being of our guests and the Priory.
4. Transportation
A suitable vehicle will also need to be rented for the duration of the visit to facilitate the movement of the Bishop and other guests between the Priory and the various places connected with the pastoral programme.
5. Miscellaneous Expenses and Other Logistics
There will inevitably be other expenses connected with accommodation, transportation, liturgical arrangements, communication, unforeseen needs, and other logistical requirements associated with hosting such an important pastoral visit.
Taking all these needs into consideration, we have estimated the total cost of preparing for and hosting the forthcoming pastoral visit at approximately ₦8,500,000 (Eight Million, Five Hundred Thousand Naira) Of this amount, approximately ₦6,000,000 is required for the replacement of the Priory's solar batteries, while approximately ₦2,500,000 is estimated for hospitality, feeding, security, transportation, and other logistical expenses.
Our Humble Appeal
It is in view of these pressing needs that we humbly appeal to you, our friends and benefactors, to assist us according to your means. No contribution is too small when offered with love and generosity for the advancement of the work of God.
We understand that many of you also have your own responsibilities and challenges. We therefore make this appeal in the spirit of fraternal charity, inviting you to share in this important apostolic occasion. Your generosity will help us provide a fitting welcome for the Bishop and our priestly guests and enable the pastoral programme to take place in an atmosphere conducive to prayer, formation, and the strengthening of our Mission.
We assure you of our prayers and profound gratitude, and we commend your generosity to the maternal care of the Blessed Virgin Mary, Maria Virgo Fidelis. May Our Lord reward you abundantly and bless you and your families.
Yours devotedly in Christ and Mary,
Rev. Fr. Christopher Nduefuna
Prior
Maria Virgo Fidelis Priory, Anaku
