Fr. Stephen Okello, is a priest of the Consolata Missionaries and a Philosophy Lecturer at the Catholic University of Eastern Africa (CUEA). He is the one who has been charged with the responsibility of coordinating Pope Francis’ visit secretariat. This is not the first time Fr. Okello as is popularly known is involved in such a preparation.

Fr. Okello played a leading role in Pope St. John Paul II visit to Kenya in 1995. Exactly 20 years later, the Kenya Conference of Catholic Bishops (KCCB) has given him another chance to coordinate Pope Francis visit to Kenya.

He acknowledges that a lot has changed in a span of twenty years making the coordination of this papal visit more complicated. Even then, he takes the responsibility with a lot of humility and courage and is doing his level best to coordinate a team that is working to ensure that His Holiness Pope Francis Visit is not just a success but an opportunity of Grace and Evangelization for the Millions of Catholics and Non Catholics who look forward to seeing the Holy Father in Kenya.
