Pastor Kayanja yesterday carrying the moment given to him by President Museveni with a rare sense of spiritual grace and discernment, turning a simple request into a powerful act of national intercession.

With humility and presence, he didn’t treat it as an ordinary interaction, but as an opportunity to cover the President, the First Family, and the nation in prayer ahead of today’s swearing-in.

His gesture reflected a deep pastoral instinct….to bless👌, to uplift🙏🏿, and to sanctify even the most informal moments❤️🙌🏽.

In doing so, he embodied a calm, dignified spiritual leadership that placed faith at the center of national unity and transition.m🙏🏿🙏🏿
