During most of the rainy seasons, South Sudan's roads become full of mud. This time the rains have very badly affected the roads and streets of Yambio, capital of former Western Equatoria state.

The Bishop of Tombura-Yambio, Mgr Eduardo Hiiboro Kussala, has joined young Catholics in Yambio to help repair the streets in this town.

He went with them personally into the mud - showing how a bishop can do manual work and in this way contribute to the reconstruction of their country.

Let us pray for him and for many to follow his example.
