    Refreshing! Thank God i finally found this in-depth study. I finally begin to understand some earlier happenings in my life and why the grace of my lord,Jesus Christ has abound with me and still does even at this present hour.It is indeed a grace to share a name with one who laboured tirelessly for the growth of the church and spread of the gospel in most compelling circumstances.I thank His Lordship,Bishop Okoye,The Bishop Of Enugu catholic diocese,who in june 1971, baptised me,St.Jerome. May the souls of St.Jerome,Bishop Okoye, and all those who have laboured for the spread of the gospel of Jesus Christ,find eternal joy in the bosom of Our Lord,Amen!
