 Visita Pastoral do Senhor Bispo Teixeira, OFSJC a Vigararia de Cristo Resgatador de Cabinda-Angola 2018 Ficou registado no livro da história da Igreja Católica das Américas em Cabinda-Angola a visita humilde e simples do seu irmão menor na fé o Bispo D. Teixeira, OFSJC Foi um acontecimento que ainda hoje parece ser um sonho não acabado quando o Senhor Bispo chegou ao airoporto Internacional de Luanda. Ai estava o jovem Maiado a espera do Senhor Bispo que o acompanharia para o próximo voo as terras Ibindas. Chegando ao airoporto de Cabinda lá estava o nosso grande homem de Deuso Senhor Padre Jorge Casimiro Congo, Vigario Regional para Africa e toda a multidão das nossas comunidades de Cabinda.
