UEDCL Confirms power restoration in Mbale city after two days of black out.

The 11th edition of the AMDA Caravan officially kicked off this week on 29th August,2025 bringing a wave of community-centered activities to Nyamitanga Parish in Mbarara City and Kibona Parish in Isingiro District. The initiative, spearheaded by the Archdiocese of Mbarara Development Association (AMDA), continues its tradition of returning to its roots to uplift the communities that shaped its members.

Speaking at the launch, AMDA Secretary General Mary Amumpaire Mwesigwa emphasized the organization’s commitment to its origins. “We come back every year because we haven’t forgotten where we came from,” she said. AMDA’s work is guided by seven foundational pillars, each addressed during the three-day caravan.

The first day focused on educational outreach, covering topics such as unity, spiritual wellbeing, farming, and academic guidance. Local residents engaged in workshops and discussions aimed at strengthening community bonds and personal development.

Day two will feature a robust medical camp offering free services to over 1,000 people. Specialized clinics including pediatrics, cardiology, dental care, ophthalmology and cancer screening are already set up to address critical health needs. Amumpaire urged residents not to miss the rare opportunity to consult specialists at no cost.

The caravan will conclude with a high mass led by the Archbishop, offering spiritual nourishment and reflection for the entire community.

Hon. Francis Mwijukye, Member of Parliament and AMDA member, reflected on the spirit of communal upbringing that inspired the initiative. “We were raised by the community, not just our parents. Giving back is our way of honoring that legacy,” he said. He also highlighted the inclusion of career guidance and counseling services for students, recognizing the challenges faced by families in raising children.

Father Richard Ssebugwawo, parish priest of Nyamitanga, expressed gratitude for AMDA’s presence. “Many families here struggle with spiritual, health, and financial challenges. This caravan could be a turning point for some,” he noted.

AMDA Chairperson Chris Gumisiriza acknowledged that despite the urban setting, the two parishes face challenges similar to rural areas including psychosocial issues, broken marriages, and land disputes. “We chose to bring in special clinics because such services are either unavailable or unaffordable for many,” he said, encouraging residents to attend in large numbers.

Now in its 11th year, the AMDA Caravan continues to be a beacon of hope, blending education, healthcare, and spiritual support to transform lives. As the caravan rolls on, it carries with it the enduring message: never forget where you came from and always give back.
