Fr Pheto Matlala Ordained for Pretoria!
Pretoria archdiocese rejoiced at the ordination of a second priest in the space of just a few weeks, Fr Pheto Matlala. In the traditional ceremony before his ordination Mass, his parents officially offered him to the Church, represented by diocesan priests. His father and mother declared that he is an adult and leader; and cautioned him about abuse of alcohol and the dangers of sexual immorality. Archbishop William Slattery said he is confident that women, children, and Church finances will be safe under his watch. Fr Matlala was labelled as joyful, happy, vibrant and charismatic by the many speakers at his ordination and first Mass. Fr Matlala, who is a good preacher, kept members of the congregation on their feet with his singing and dancing. (Photo: Mathibela Sebothoma)
