The Bishop of Masaka Diocese Rt. Rev. Serverus Jjumba who was supposed to be presiding Bishop and all Christians from Masaka for this year’s June 3^rd Martyrs day at Namugongo has held the day from Kitovu Cathedral Masaka.

Bishop Jjumba has acknowledged the need for love for every person despite any difference, taking it from the suffering many are undergoing due to the lockdown.

He says every person is equal before God, meaning there should be equity and equality.

Live God who so loved man and sent his son to redeem him, let Ugandans strive for peace for all especially the children, youth and mothers who have been so vulnerable during the lockdown due to COVID-19.

He says brutal attacks on mothers and children by their spouses and parents leaves a lot of pain, calling for repentance by men and women in families to live like the holy family of Nazareth.

Bishop Jjumba encouraged youth to be the light of the world.

Bishop Jjumba has hailed all Christians for having persevered since the churches were closed in March 2020 due to Covid-19, urging all to remain in prayer from their homes until the time when the churches will be opened and above all to see the world getting a cure for COVID-19.
