On a beautiful day in Kampala, Archbishop Paul Ssemogerere ordained new priests and deacons at Lubaga Cathedral in the Kampala Archdiocese. The ceremony witnessed the Holy Cross Congregation’s priestly and Diaconate ordinations, marking the transition of two deacons to priesthood and seven seminarians taking up the responsibilities of the Diaconate.
The atmosphere was filled with joy as Bishop Serverus Jjumba added more glory, grace, and blessings to the occasion by gracing the ordination at Lubaga. The newly ordained priests and deacons were surrounded by their families, friends, and well-wishers who were excited to witness their loved ones embark on this significant milestone of their religious vocations.
The event was well-coordinated, and everything went smoothly without any hitch. The newly ordained priests and deacons looked radiant and filled with joy, ready to begin their new lives in the religious congregation. They expressed deep gratitude to the church and the archdiocese for the opportunity to serve God in various capacities.
Archbishop Ssemogerere expressed his delight at the ordination and urged the newly ordained priests and deacons to put their hearts and minds into their ministries, serving God and humanity with utmost dedication and commitment. He thanked the Holy Cross Congregation for their consistency and support of the church and encouraged them to continue their mission of spreading the good news of salvation to all corners of the world.
In conclusion, it was a glorious day filled with the blessings of God as new priests and deacons embarked on their religious vocations. The Lubaga Cathedral in the Kampala Archdiocese was the perfect place to witness the ordination ceremony, which will remain a memorable event for all who attended. Once again, we extend our heartfelt congratulations to the newly ordained priests and deacons and pray for God’s blessings upon their ministries.
