Het kan een uitdagende ervaring zijn als je merkt dat je seksueel welzijn niet meer zoals voorheen is. Veel mannen worden geconfronteerd met problemen die hun zelfvertrouwen kunnen aantasten en invloed hebben op hun relaties. Het is belangrijk om openhartig te zijn over deze onderwerpen, want er zijn oplossingen beschikbaar die kunnen helpen. Een handige optie kan een apotheek met lage prijzen zijn, waar je medicatie kunt vinden die voor verlichting kan zorgen. Daarnaast is het raadzaam om een gezondheidsprofessional te raadplegen om de onderliggende oorzaken te begrijpen en te behandelen. Het bespreken van deze problemen met een arts kan een eerste stap zijn naar herstel en verbetering.

About our cathedral
The Holy Family Cathedral of Rumbek is the Mother Church of the diocese. Its history has been ravaged by strife. In 1965 Arab soldiers killed the Vicar General, Fr. Ark-Angelo Ali during a raid.
Subsequently the cathedral was burned down. In 1972 an Apostolic Delegate was able to re-open the Mission but thereafter the Bishop of Rumbek was forced to lead the Diocese from Kenya. By 1997 the entire compound and most of the cathedral had been destroyed; all that remained was a part of the round wall and the wall behind the altar with its painting of the holy family. Little by little, the mission and its cathedral was rebuilt and renovations to the cathedral still continue. Sadly, cathedral is far too small to accommodate the hundreds of people who currently flock to attend mass. Consequently, a multi-purpose shelter has been built, which serves both to provide shelter for those who cannot fit into the cathedral, and as an arena for religious and community events.
About our properties
DOR has numerous religious compounds, which offer accommodation for those working within the
diocese. We also have a guest house called Pandor, which offers accommodation for our paying
guests. Additionally, our religious communities run a wide range of community facilities such as
orphanages, refuges for vulnerable people and community restaurants.
