MASAKA, UGANDA: President Yoweri Museveni Sunday donated Shs50m towards the construction of Sserinya parish priests’ house in Buwunga Sub-County Masaka Archdiocese.
The shs 50m package was delivered by Hon. Persis Namuganza, the minister of state for lands, housing and urban development on behalf of the President.
The Bishop of Masaka Diocese Rt. Rev Serverus Jjumba thanked the President for the gesture towards the church.
“The Bible says, Go up to the mountains, bring wood and rebuild the temple, that I may be pleased with it. That is exactly what President’s big heart has decided to do for the Christians in Serinya parish, Bukomansimbi district, courtesy of Eng Joseph Ssewava,” the Bishop said.
