Good morning. When we spend a lot of time trying to look after & please ourselves, we forfeit happiness & a better life. It’s only when we care about others & look out for each other that we pursue happiness & better life. Love & respect each other. God being your helper.

The canonisation of St. Maria Goretti, who was stabbed to death at the age of 11 defending her virtue, in 1950 was the first to be held outdoors in the St. Peter's Square. In another first, her aged mother was present at the solemn ceremony. Her repentant murderer too.

[Dr. Oriba Dan Langoya @DrOribaDan]

In Memory of Dr. Mathew Lukwiya

In his final hours, he spoke to Sister Apio Anyai Angioletta, the paediatric nurse who had known him for years. She would later remember his exact words.
"Sister, things are worsening. I have tried to fight. The battle is almost over. Now I am seeing that I am also going. The time has come for me to go. That I know. I am going. But if I go, I will be at the doorway. Nobody is going to die now. I will tell my God that enough is enough."

Then he began to sing a hymn about war. Everyone in the room broke down. Sister Apio replied, "No, doctor, it will not be like that." But it was. On December 4th his breathing briefly stabilised. Later that evening his lungs began to haemorrhage. He died at 1:20am on December 5th, 2000.

He was buried at 4pm the same day. The coffin was sprayed with Jik bleach as it was lowered. Margaret asked if she could see him one last time and was refused. The body was considered too infectious.

He was placed in a grave he had chosen himself while he was dying, at the Grotto inside the hospital grounds, beside Dr. Lucille Teasdale and later Piero Corti. Teasdale had died in 1996 of AIDS, contracted while operating on an HIV-positive patient.
The student was buried beside his mentors.

And then something extraordinary happened. After Lukwiya's death, every remaining Ebola patient at Lacor survived. Not another single person died at the hospital. Sister Apio remembered the promise he had made on his deathbed: "I will tell my God that enough is enough." It is the kind of detail you would not believe if you read it in a novel.

By the time the WHO declared Uganda Ebola-free on February 6th, 2001, 425 confirmed and probable cases had been recorded, and 224 Ugandans had died, including thirteen health workers from Lacor alone.

The survival rate during the outbreak was nearly 50%, compared to as low as 10% in previous African outbreaks, largely because of the systems Lukwiya had built before anyone else even knew what was happening.

This is what the mainstream story leaves out. The intern who refused a teaching job in England. The doctor who walked into the bush instead of the nuns. The administrator who turned the hospital into a shelter for nine thousand people, most of them children, every night.

The Acholi son of a smuggler who topped his country in school, won the John Hay Prize at Liverpool, and still chose Gulu over everything else. By the time he made that final speech to his nurses, the heroism was already the entire shape of his life. The Ebola work only made it public.

Happy Heroes Day, Dr Matthew and all healthcare workers who sacrifice more than they should have to! #HeroesDay

As part of our efforts to digitize ministry in @ChurchofUganda_, with support from PaxTel, today we successfully conducted an onboarding exercise for the Diocesan Staff of South Ankole Diocese in Ntungamo.

I sincerely appreciate Bishop Nathan Ahimbisibwe for embracing this digital transformation journey.

The PaxTel team has pitched camp at the Diocesan Secretariat in Kyamate to onboard diocesan staff and clergy across the Diocese, and will later extend the exercise to parishes to onboard Christians over the coming days.

We have also installed PaxTel Internet services to enhance connectivity and communication within the Diocese.

The partnership between @ChurchofUganda_ and @Paxtel_mobile serves multiple community and church development goals:

1. Creating unified channels for better information flow, community engagement, and digital access across the entire Church structure.

2. Providing financial services through PaxSente.

3. Collaborating on initiatives that will create employment and entrepreneurial opportunities for young people.

4. Strengthening support for the Church’s healthcare, education, and social outreach programmes.

Very soon, we will roll out a Church Management System to enhance administration, accountability, and communication across the Church, thanks to the visionary leadership of His Grace @Archbp_COU.

My former headmaster, Dr. Peregrine Kibuuka (may he continue to rest in peace), often reminded us:

"You may commit an offence as a group but, when I send you home, there comes a moment when you step out of the taxi and walk that lonely road by yourself".

It was his way of teaching us that while actions may be taken collectively, consequences are ultimately borne individually. The crowd may share the decision, but accountability always finds your doorstep alone.
