Most Reverend Charles Gabriel Palmer-Buckle, the Metropolitan Archbishop of the Cape Coast Catholic Diocese has urged "young adults" to spend time and study each other well before entering into marriage.

    He however, asked them to eschew acts of immorality and guard themselves against fleshy pleasures and desires that could ruin their lives and future aspirations, as they under-studied each other.

   "You must go closer to each other. Try and join the choir so that you may know each other well, but endeavour to guard against the lust of the flesh, and the fleshy pleasures of this world which war against the spirit, as you do so", he said.

    Archbishop Palmer-Buckle gave the advice when he addressed students and lectures of the Catholic University of Ghana at a thanksgiving service held at the university's main campus at Fiapre, near Sunyani.

     The Renowned Catholic Priest had earlier officiated a holy mass at the service, held by the University to thank God for attaining a Presidential Charter to become autonomous academic institution of higher studies.

    "Try as much as possible to remain discipline too, and live godly lives by bearing the fruit of the spirit", Archbishop Palmer-Buckle stated, saying "it's only those who strive hard can achieve something worthy in life".

     He indicated that the true form of Catholic education was the one anchored on holiness and godly virtues, and asked the students to make righteous living and discipline a hallmark, loved each other and walked in accordance with biblical principles and sound doctrines for Christ to be formed in them.

     Most Rev. Matthew Kwasi Gyamfi, the Catholic Bishop of the Sunyani Diocese led the service to pray for the university community and the nation and the church.
