Renato "Kizito" Sesana (born 1943) is an Italian Comboni missionary, journalist and humanitarian worker. He is well known for his work to rescue the street children of Nairobi. == Early life == Renato Sesana was born in Lecco, Italy in 1943. In 1962, he graduated with a junior degree in mechanical engineering, and went to work at the famous Moto Guzzi factory in nearby Mandello del Lario. Sesana entered the novitiate of the Comboni Missionaries in Gozzano, Italy, in 1964. He later studied theology for four years at Venegono Superiore and was ordained a Catholic priest in 1970. He assumed the name 'Kizito', after Saint Kizito (the youngest of the Uganda Martyrs, who was canonized by Pope Paul VI in 1964). In the early 1970s, Sesana worked for ''Nigrizia'', a prestigious Comboni magazine, of which he was the youngest editor ever, in more than a hundred years history of the magazine. He was appointed its editor between 1973 and 1975, during which period he began to travel around Africa, writing and taking pictures. In 1975, Sesana studied English in the United States, living at the Holy Cross Parish in Los Angeles, California. He returned to Italy the following year and in 1977 graduated in political science from the University of Padua, Italy. His thesis focused on African Americans in the Catholic Church. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Renato Kizito Sesana」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
