10. St Martins
The Mission is using a 2.4 Diesel car a 1995 Model. There are 2 furthest parishes namely St Claudious’ and St Paul’s both are 35 Km away from the main parish St Kizito. The road is Rocky and the parishioners rely on farming alone. The welfare of priest is hard because the mission faces the problem of Electricity so there is no room for viable self-reliant project. There is also water problem because the pump of water is electric.
The parishioners despite the hardships of life they have strong faith that needs to be cared for. Positively, they do sacrifice to feed the clergy and the religious at the mission.
