“Welcome to Owerri Catholic Archdiocese.”

A warm welcome to Maria Assumpta  Cathedral, the seat of the Archbishop of Owerri, the President Catholic Bishop’s Conference of Nigeria (CBCN), and the Mother Church for Roman Catholics in Owerri and environs. For over a hundred years countless Christians and visitors of every faith and none have crossed the threshold of this holy place, sensing the presence of God and filling it with prayer and contemplation.

 Divine Mercy Sunday

1st Reading: Acts.4:32-35; 2nd Reading:1Jn. 5:1-7 ; Gospel: Jn 20:19-31

Jubilation is Resurrection Trumpet,

Mercy its healing grace.

As we celebrate Gods Healing Mercy let us

learn to be more and more merciful.

The reappearance of Our Lord Jesus Christ to His disciples after he rose from the dead confirmed their faith in Him. With that faith powered by the gift of the Holy Spirit the Church began to grow as a faith-community sharing spiritual and material gifts with all, preaching the Gospel and the forgiveness of sins and welcoming new members with baptism. Unlike Thomas we believe without seeing or touching.
