On the 4th July 2026, all the Sisters of the PHJC Kenyan Region gathered at St. Joseph Home Caring Place for a joyful celebration honoring Rt. Rev. Bishop Emeritus Salesius Mugambi on his retirement after many years of faithful and dedicated service to the Diocese of Meru.
The celebration also included a thanksgiving for Dr. Ambassador Julius Mbijiwe as he prepares for his new diplomatic mission in Rome. Dr. Mbijiwe is among the first members of the PHJC Associates who are currently undergoing formation, making this occasion especially meaningful for the PHJC family. The sisters expressed their gratitude for his friendship, commitment, and service, and assured him of their prayers as he begins this important responsibility.
The Eucharistic celebration was marked by gratitude, joy, and fellowship as the PHJC Kenyan Region gave thanks to God for the faithful witness and service of these two distinguished leaders. We continue to pray that God will bless Bishop Emeritus Mugambi with good health and peace in retirement, and grant Dr. Ambassador Julius Mbijiwe wisdom, strength, and abundant blessings in his diplomatic mission in Rome.
