The deaths took place at a time when there was a three-way religious struggle for political influence at the Buganda royal court. The episode also occurred against the backdrop of the "Scramble for Africa" – the invasion, occupation, division, colonization and annexation of African territory by European powers.[4] A few years after, the English Church Missionary Society used the deaths to enlist wider public support for the British acquisition of Uganda for the Empire.[5] The Catholic Church beatified the 22 Catholic martyrs of its faith in 1920 and canonized them in 1964. CONTEXT Publication in Britain of an 1875 letter purporting to be an invitation from the king of Buganda, Muteesa I, to send missionaries, resulted in the arrival of Alexander Mackay of the Anglican Church Missionary Society to Buganda in 1877. A group of French Catholic White Fathers, led by Père Simon Lourdel (Fr. Mapera) appeared two years later. Arab traders from Zanzibar had introduced Islam into the kingdom.[6] This effectively led to a three-way religious struggle for political influence at the Buganda royal court.[4] By the mid-1880s, many had been converted by each of the three groups, and some of the converts held important posts at the king's court.[7] Muteesa himself sympathized with Islam, but many prominent chiefs had become Christians.[8] Kabaka Mwanga II succeeded to the throne in 1884. He was concerned at the growing influence of Christianity and the rise of a new class of officials, distinct from the traditional territorial chiefs, who were educated, had a religious orientation, and wished to reform Ganda society.[9] The German annexation of what is now Tanzania sparked further alarm. A year after becoming king he ordered the execution of Yusufu Rugarama, Makko Kakumba, and Nuwa/Noah Serwanga, who had converted to Christianity.[3] Encouraged by his prime minister, on 29 October 1885 he had the incoming Anglican bishop James Hannington assassinated on the eastern border of his kingdom. This may have been deliberately intended to ward off a potential British invasion.[10] Mwanga did, however, subsequently appoint several Christians to important military positions. ST CHARLES LWANGA Charles Lwanga (Luganda: Kaloli Lwanga (1 January 1860 – 3 June 1886) was a Ugandan convert to the Catholic Church, who was martyred for his faith and is revered as a saint by both the Catholic Church and the Anglican Communion. MARTYRE Born - 1 January 1860 , Kingdom of Buganda Died - 3 June 1886 (aged 26)Namugongo, Kingdom of Buganda Venerated in - Catholic Church Anglican Communion Lutheranism Beatified - 1920, Rome, Kingdom of Italy, by Pope Benedict XV Canonized - 18 October 1964, Uganda, by Pope Paul VI Major shrine - Basilica of the Uganda Martyrs, Munyonyo Martyrs Shrine Feast - 3 June Patronage - African Catholic Youth Action, converts, torture victims Charles lwanga was a member of the Baganda tribe, Lwanga was born in the Kingdom of Buganda, the central and southern part of modern Uganda, and served as chief of the royal pages and later major-domo in the court of King Mwanga II of Buganda. He was baptised by Pere Giraud on 15 November 1885.[6] As part of the king's effort to resist foreign colonization, the king insisted that Christian converts abandon their new faith and executed many Anglicans and Catholics between 1885 and 1887, including Lwanga and other officials in the royal court or otherwise very close to him The persecution started in 1885 after Mwanga, a ritual pedophile, ordered a massacre of Anglican missionaries, including Bishop James Hannington who was the leader of the Anglican community. Joseph Mukasa Balikuddembe, the Catholic major-domo of the court and a lay catechist, reproached the king for the killings, against which he had counseled him. Mwanga had Balikuddembe beheaded and arrested all of his followers on 15 November 1885. The king then ordered that Lwanga, who was chief page at that time, take up Balikuddembe's duties. That same day, Lwanga and other pages under his protection sought baptism as Catholics by a missionary priest of the White Fathers; some hundred catechumens were baptized. Lwanga often protected boys in his charge from the king’s sexual advances.[8] On 25 May 1886, Mwanga ordered a general assembly of the court while they were settled at Munyonyo, where he condemned two of the pages to death. The following morning, Lwanga secretly baptized those of his charges who were still only catechumens. Later that day, the king called a court assembly in which he interrogated all present to see if any would renounce Christianity. Led by Lwanga, the royal pages declared their fidelity to their religion, upon which the king condemned them to death, directing that they be marched to the traditional place of execution. Three of the prisoners, Pontian Ngondwe, Athanasius Bazzekuketta, and Gonzaga Gonza, were murdered on the march there. When preparations were completed and the day had come for the execution on 3 June 1886, Lwanga was separated from the others by the Guardian of the Sacred Flame for private execution, in keeping with custom. As he was being burnt, Lwanga said to the Guardian, "It is as if you are pouring water on me. Please repent and become a Christian like me."[1] Twelve Catholic boys and men and nine Anglicans were then burnt alive. Another Catholic, Mbaga Tuzinde, was clubbed to death for refusing to renounce Christianity, and his body was thrown into the furnace to be burned along with those of Lwanga and the others[10] The ire of the king was particularly inflamed against the Christians because they refused to participate in sexual acts with him.[11] Lwanga, in particular, had protected the pages.[4] The executions were also motivated by Mwanga's broader efforts to avoid foreign threats to his power. According to Assa Okoth, Mwanga's overriding preoccupation was for the "integrity of his kingdom", and perceived that men such as Lwanga were working with foreigners in "poisoning the very roots of his kingdom". Not to have taken any action could have led to suggestions that he was a weak sovereign VENERATION Lwanga senior and the other Christians who accompanied him in death were canonized on 18 October 1964 by Pope Paul VI during the Vatican II conference.[13] "To honor these African saints, Paul VI became the first reigning pope to visit sub-Saharan Africa when he toured Uganda in July 1969, a visit that included a pilgrimage to the site of the martyrdom at Namugongo".[14] The Basilica of the Uganda Martyrs was built at the site of the executions and serves as their shrine.[15] The Brothers of St. Charles Lwanga senior (Luganda: Bannakaroli Brothers) were founded in 1927 as an indigenous religious congregation of Ugandan men committed to providing education to the disadvantaged youth of their country.

He was one of many Christians put to death by King Mwanga II between 1885 and 1887. He was the king Mwanga's bandmaster-General, the Mugowa. He was baptized on 30 April 1882 by Père Simon Lourdel M.Afr. (known as Fr. Mapera) at Nabulagala. The day he met his death, he was arrested at his home and taken to the Chancellor who ordered the executioners to cut off his arm. Kaggwa's arm was first cut off and taken to Mukasa before he was beheaded and hacked to pieces at Munyonyo. He died in the afternoon of Wednesday 26 May 1886. Kaggwa is the patron of Catechists, Teachers and Families. He is remembered as one of the Martyrs of Uganda's feast day.

  • Saint Charles Lwanga (And Companions) the Martyrs of Uganda Feast Day: June 3Rd St
    Saint Charles Lwanga (and Companions) The Martyrs of Uganda Feast Day: June 3rd St. Charles Lwanga is the patron saint of youth in tropical Africa, converts, torture victims, and the African Catholic Youth Action. He is one of 22 martyrs who died at the hands of King Mwanga of Uganda, who killed the 11 Catholics and 11 Anglicans for not renouncing their faith on June 3, 1886. It was one of many acts of violence by King Mwanga, a pedophile who preyed upon his attendants and young men. Charles Lwanga became the chief page after his predecessor was beheaded for confronting the king about the violence against Protestant missionaries. Charles chose to be baptized that same night. St. Charles stood steadfast in his faith and encouraged the other young men of Mwanga’s court to take root in the Catholic faith. His faith inspired others, even in the midst of the violence, in the face of death. For his unwillingness to submit and his efforts to safeguard the faith of his friends, Charles was burned to death on June 3, 1886, in Namugongo, Uganda. He was 26 years old. Christianity wasn’t always unwelcome in Uganda. The Missionaries of Africa – commonly known as the White Fathers – first introduced Catholicism to Uganda in 1879 under the reign of King Mutesa. By the time his son, Mwanga, became king, there were many practicing their faith who were targeted by the new king. A week before St. Charles Lwanga was executed, King Mwanga had separated and questioned the faithful in his court; it wasn’t until they proclaimed their faith openly in court that Mwanga ordered their execution.

  • Quality of the Lake Water at Uganda Martyrs' Catholic
    G.J.B.A.H.S.,Vol.3(3):158-165 (July-September, 2014) ISSN: 2319 – 5584 QUALITY OF THE LAKE WATER AT UGANDA MARTYRS’ CATHOLIC SHRINE, NAMUGONGO AND ITS SUITABILITY FOR HUMAN CONSUMPTION 1 2 SSALI MATHIAS & MBEIZA MUTEKANGA NORAH 1Ssali Mathias: Sacred Heart Seminary, Mubende, P. O. Box 110 Mubende, Uganda. 2Mbeiza Mutekanga Norah (PhD), Biological Sciences Department, Kyambogo University, P.O. Box 1, Kyambogo, Uganda. ABSTRACT The physical, chemical and bacteriological quality of the lake water at Uganda Martyrs’ Catholic Shrine Namugongo was determined in an attempt to ascertain its suitability for human consumption. Pilgrims who visit the shrine come for prayers at various times of the year and drink this water directly from the water body. They attach healing remedies to it. From the parameters investigated it was determined that this water is unsuitable for human consumption judged against the set standards of Uganda National Bureau of standards and World Health Organization. Therefore, pilgrims and communities living nearby should be discouraged from drinking this water in its raw form. It is recommended that a factory be set up to purify this water and/or it is boiled before being drank by the locals and pilgrims. Key words: Martyrs’ shrine, contamination, water, pilgrims, lake. 1.0 Introduction Uganda Martyrs’ Catholic shrine Namugongo (UMCSN) is a place where Christians worship God in honor of the martyrs. Among the martyrs were 22 Catholic converts to Christianity who were killed by the Kabaka (King) of Buganda called Mwanga II. These killings were carried out because of their loyalty to God compared to that for their king.

  • Newsletter: Issue 3: Summer2011
    UGANDA COMMUNITY IN GREATER CHICAGO QUARTERLY NEWSLETTER: ISSUE 3: SUMMER2011 The Martyrs of Uganda (St. Charles Lwanga and Companions (June 3rd) By Fr. Leo Tinkatumire (Mbarara Archdiocese-Uganda) Currently a Chicago Resident. Worldwide, the Catholic Church marks June 3rd as the feast of St. Charles Lwanga and Companions, the martyrs of Uganda, East Africa. St. Charles Lwanga is singled out because of his leading role as a catechist and animators of the martyrs. He even baptized some of them. In his introduction to African Holocaust: the Story of the Uganda Martyrs, Bishop Joseph Willigers explains, ―Saints are special gifts which God makes to the world. They are given to us not merely to be objects of our admiration to be safely locked away in a shrine or as a source of national pride. They are in the first place meant to inspire us and spur us on to be in our own times and to our own living signs of God’s saving power.‖ Charles Lwanga and his companions lived lives much like our own, but had to make a choice that most of us will never face. The Uganda Martyrs lived in the traditional kingdom of Buganda, in Uganda, East Africa. Their King (Kabaka), Mwanga II, gave them a choice: ―Denounce Christianity or die.‖ Charles and his companions chose ―to die rather than denounce their faith.‖ Between January 1885 and January 1887, Mwanga II had at least forty-five new Christian converts killed. The Church honors those who exhibit such courage, devotion, and selfless sacrifice for their faith as heroes, models of faith who intercede for the living before God.

  • Pope Francis' Address to the Pontifical Mission Societies
    N. 170603e Saturday 03.06.2017 Audience with participants in the Assembly of the Pontifical Mission Societies At 11.00 today, in the Clementine Hall of the Vatican Apostolic Palace, the Holy Father Francis received in audience the participants in the Assembly of the Pontifical Mission Societies. The following is the Pope’s address to those present: Holy Father’s Address Dear Cardinal, Dear brothers and sisters, I welcome you with joy at the end of your General Assembly and I thank Cardinal Fernando Filoni for his words. With him I greet all the Superiors, the General Secretaries, the National Director and all of you present here. You well know my concern about the Pontifical Mission Societies, very often reduced to an organization that collects and distributes, on behalf of the Pope, economic aid for the neediest Churches. I know that you are seeking new ways, more suitable and more ecclesial methods to carry out your service to the universal mission of the Church. Let us allow ourselves to be sustained, in this process of urgent reform, also by the intercession of the Saints Charles Lwanga and companions, martyrs of Uganda, whose liturgical memory we celebrate today. To renew ardour and passion, the spiritual motor of the apostolic action of countless missionary saints and martyrs, I have very favourably received your proposal, formulated together with the Congregation for the Evangelization of Peoples, to announce an extraordinary time for prayer and reflection on the missio ad gentes. I will ask all the Church to dedicate the month of October of the year 2019 to this aim, as in that year we will celebrate the centenary of the Apostolic Letter Maximum illud, of Pope Benedict XV.

  • On the Canonizations of Pope John Paul II Frs
    On the Canonizations of Pope John Paul II Frs. Bernard Lorber & Jean-Michel Gleize Excerpted from the January 2007 issue of The Angelus In discussing the canonizations of Pope John Paul II, we are well aware that so doing we touch upon an extremely delicate matter which, by a natural desire for peace and concord, we would prefer not to have to address. If there is one area in which we could have willingly followed the Pope, it is in the fight against the current neo-protestant tendency to desacralize divine worship. Nevertheless, we have been compelled to take note over the years not only of the astonishing increase in the number of beatifications and canonizations that have taken place, a point to which we shall return later, but also of the choice of subjects, which has often resulted in the pairing of persons who were doctrinally opposed. The beatifications of Pope Pius IX and Pope John XXIII in 1999 is among the most flagrant examples of this. The canonizations within a few months of each other of Padre Pio and Jose Escrivá de Balaguer are also of a nature to trouble a mind that operates according to the principle of non- contradiction. In the present essay we make no pretense of deciding the matter, for we lack the competence to do so. Undoubtedly, one day the Magisterium will provide guiding lights different than those provided by Rome today, and then will issue clarifications about certain cases of dubious beatifications and canonizations.1 May the reader not be scandalized by this affirmation implying a relativity in the Church's Magisterium.
