He touched the lives of multitudes of people both young and old during his time and this is ably narrated and illustrated in the text. These charisms are well illustrated in the rich testimonies provided by some priests and lay people in this book as well as the numerous condolence messages recorded which are only a snapshot of the outpouring grief witnessed by all who knew him when he passed away.īishop Munyongani was a gifted preacher, a teacher, a servant leader who loved and embedded himself within his people and above all, who was devoted to and served the Lord with his heart and soul. His priesthood lasted 40 years, serving 4 of those as a bishop and calling to mind the servant who reported back to his master, ‘Master, you delivered to me five talents here, I have made five talents more.’ (Mt25:20). Starting out from humble origins at his rural home near Mutero in Gutu, God called him to the priesthood from which he never looked back or wavered. It is with great joy that we, the Catholic bishops of Zimbabwe provide the foreword to this book titled When God called – his job here was done which reflects on the life and work of the late Bishop Xaverio Johnsai Munyongani. © 2014 by Order of Saint Benedict, Collegeville, Minnesota.

Yesterday you brought me a nice satisfaction. There in my Saviour’s love, perfectly blest Īge after age to be nearer, my God, to Thee. There in my Father’s home, safe and at rest, Sun, moon, and stars forgot, upward I’ll fly, So by my woes to be nearer, my God, to Thee. Out of my stony griefs Bethel I’ll raise Then, with my waking thoughts bright with Thy praise, There let the way appear, steps unto Heav’n Īll that Thou sendest me, in mercy giv’n Īngels to beckon me nearer, my God, to Thee. Yet in my dreams I’d be nearer, my God, to Thee. Though like the wanderer, the sun gone down, Still all my song shall be, nearer, my God, to Thee. Nearer, my God, to Thee, nearer to Thee! E’en though it be a cross that raiseth me, Nearer, My God, to Thee Nearer to Thee!
