President Museveni has appealed to the Church to renew the fires and flames of evangelism in society so as to address the erosion of moral standards and integrity as it was in the past.
The President made the remarks at the 29th Lango Diocesan Synod where he was represented by the Vice President, Jessica Alupo.
In his speech, the President gave a brief history of the Church of Uganda, in existence for 145 years noting that it had evangelized the Great lakes region while offering holistic ministry in a non-discriminatory manner to members and non-members.
The President also applauded the existing partnership between the church and state as very critical to our country’s journey to the middle-income status.
The President also made reference to the soon to be launched Parish Development Model, as a “transformative intervention” that seeks to move 3.5 million households into the money economy and called for the Church’s support in realizing this. END
