Archbishop's 5 Anniversary Dinner Celebration Rallies Support for The nd Volume 1, Issue 5 2 March 2009 Archbishop’s 5th Anniversary Dinner Celebration Rallies Support for the Next Five Years Three hundred people from all sectors of the country gathered at the Serena Hotel in Kampala on Thursday, 26th February 2009, for a three-course dinner celebrating the Most Rev. Henry Luke Orombi’s first five years as Archbishop of the Church of Uganda. The cost of the dinner – 31 million shillings – was underwritten by Ecobank. Corporate entities, churches, and institutions purchased tables, and individuals purchased tickets at 100,000/= to participate in the celebration. WBS and NTV television stations broadcast the programme live from 7.30 – 9 p.m. that night. MTN provided high-speed broadband internet connectivity in order to broadcast the event live on the internet for international friends and partners to participate. A 20-minute multi-media presentation highlighted the wide range of the Archbishop’s ministry and travels throughout the entire country. Guests were invited to pledge financial support for the Archbishop’s vision for the next five years and to express areas of interest in active partnership. Approximately 40 million shillings was pledged and more than 60 people returned cards indicating partnership interest in these five areas: • Northern Uganda resettlement programme • Training church leaders • Evangelism and Archbishop’s pastoral travels • Empowering youth against HIV/AIDS • Archbishop’s outreach to the corporate community Guest of Honour, Retired Archbishop Livingstone Mpalanyi-Nkoyoyo, said that the “church impacts all aspects of society,” which is why all sectors of the society were gathered at the function. “The church is a key stakeholder in the development of our nation.” He thanked the current Archbishop, Henry Luke Orombi, for “keeping the flag flying high since my handover.” He also thanked him for continuing to use him and involve him in the life of the church and encouraged all Bishops in the Church of Uganda to view retired Bishops and clergy as assets in the church’s ministry. Archbishop Henry Luke Orombi’s speech, punctuated by frequent applause, was divided into three parts. He began by highlighting four ways in which the Old Testament Patriarch Joseph was successful. He was a Dreamer. “It is hard to maintain your dream if you are a coward. Joseph was bold in sharing his dream, and it was very costly for him.” Joseph was a “successful slave.” “Even as a slave, Joseph prospered and he made Potiphar prosper,” the Archbishop said. “Many of you are making Uganda prosper.” Joseph was also a “successful prisoner,” because it was in prison that Joseph the Dreamer became Joseph the Interpreter. Finally, Joseph was a “successful leader.” He went from prisoner to Prime Minister. He became a Saviour to his family because he was able to forgive. “In Uganda,” Archbishop Henry said, “we have a deep need for forgiveness.” The second section of the Archbishop’s remarks focused on the things he has seen God do in his first five years as Archbishop. • At the time of his enthronement, he received conflict in the church, focused in Muhabura, North Mbale, and Masindi-Kitara Dioceses. Now there is peace. • As the Archbishop, he is the Chief Shepherd to the church. He has visited 27 of the 32 dioceses, from Kotido to Kisoro, from Arua to Sebei. • There has been a significant turnover of Bishops in the first five years. He has consecrated 13 new bishops, and five more will be consecrated in 2009. God is raising up new leaders. • Former Archbishop Nkoyoyo built the Archbishop’s Palace; Archbishop Henry has overseen the completion of the renovation and expansion of the national headquarters of the Church of Uganda on Namirembe Hill. Likewise, there has been stability in the financial contributions of dioceses to the province. • God has stirred the hearts of young people. For example, in January, West Ankole Diocese held a youth convention, planning to host 1,000 young people in the Cathedral. When 6,000 youth showed up for the convention, they rushed to put up tents outdoors, and collect sauce pans and food to accommodate the surge of interest. • His first act as Archbishop was to visit Northern and Northeastern Uganda to provide encouragement to whole populations of people who have suffered enormously because of conflict. The Archbishop said it was a “heart-rending” experience to see 60,000 people displaced and suffering because of the lack of basic necessities and human rights. • He has also seen Uganda become well-known in the global Anglican Communion as a voice for historic and Biblical faith. “We are known as a Bible-believing Church.” The final section of the Archbishop’s remarks outlined his priorities for the final five years in office, and invited guests to partner with him and the Church of Uganda to see these dreams come to fruition. • Church House will be completed. The cost is USD 15 million. “This is God’s project,” he said. • The Decade of Mission. He sees a church in which the fire of revival is rekindled and the church is sent out, proclaiming the Gospel far, deep, and wide. He appealed to guests for a vehicle that would be designed to accommodate a stage and PA system for his frequent visits to Dioceses for preaching. • HIV/AIDS. In the recent past, the Church of Uganda had received USD 15 million from USAID to treat, care for, and prevent HIV/AIDS. The church was recently awarded USD 30 million to carry on this ministry of reaching out and bringing love and compassion to those infected and affected by HIV/AIDS. • The Crusade against Human Sacrifice. Referring to the previous day’s launch of the 40-day Prayer and Fasting Campaign against Human Sacrifice, Archbishop Henry said, “Human sacrifice is a stench in the nostrils of God.” He appealed to WBS and NTV to join him and the church in this crusade. Professor Emmanuel Mutebile, Governor of the Bank of Uganda, presented Archbishop Henry Luke Orombi with a framed copy of the Citation of Congratulations that was read at the function by the Provincial Secretary, Rev. Canon Aaron Mwesigye. .

    The role of evangelical leadership in Uganda for effective church ministry: a strategic practical theological study by Asea. B.K. Wilson BA (Hons), MA (Theology) Thesis submitted in fulfillment of the requirements for the degree Philosophiae Doctor in Pastoral Studies at the North-West University - Potchefstroom Campus Promoter: Prof. Dr. Rantoa. S. Letšosa November 2012 Declaration I hereby declare that this PhD thesis: The role of the evangelical leadership in Uganda for effective church ministry: a strategic practical theological study is my own work and has not been submitted by me to any other university. ASEA. B.K. WILSON North-West University Potchefstroom Campus South Africa November 2012 i Abstract God is the ultimate leader, and the church leadership mandate and responsibility is from Him. The Lord prepares those He calls to take leadership responsibilities. He does not intend to use persons who are not properly equipped and developed to occupy high leadership positions in the church. Hence church leaders in evangelical churches in Uganda who wish to be proficiently used by God should be holistically trained in theology and leadership for effective church ministry and church growth. However, lack of proper leadership training poses a huge challenge to evangelical churches in Uganda. The traditional theological educational system in Uganda is too academic, paying too little attention to practical relevance; to pastoral ministry, mission and spiritual formation. In addition, the weak relationship of many Pentecostal leaders with theological training in Uganda has led to dead intellectualism and heresy upon heresy. As such these church leaders do not address the felt needs of the church correctly.

  • Anglican Church of Uganda Welcomes a New Archbishop Flip Buys (Associate International Director WRF) [email protected]
    Anglican Church of Uganda welcomes a New Archbishop Flip Buys (Associate International Director WRF) [email protected] Did you know that on any given Sunday more people are worshipping in Anglican Churches in Uganda than in all the Anglican Churches in Britain, Canada and all the Episcopalian Churches in the US combined? I had the privilege to represent World Reformed Fellowship at the joyful installation service of Right Reverend Stanley Ntagali as the 8th Archbishop of the Church of Uganda on Sunday, the 16th of December, at St. Paul’s Cathedral, Namirembe in Uganda. What a blessing to taste something of the vibrant and joyful worship of these brothers and sisters in Christ! More than 3,000 people attended the colourful ceremony, including His Excellency the President, political leaders, business leaders, and all the bishops of the Church of Uganda. Ten Archbishops (Primates) from other provinces in the Anglican communion were also present – Burundi, Rwanda, Sudan, Kenya, Indian Ocean, Nigeria, Jerusalem and the Middle East, England, Scotland, and North America – along with other bishops from Kenya, Congo, Rwanda, Burundi, Australia, United States of America, and England. The Most Rev. John Sentamu, Archbishop of York and a Ugandan by birth, represented the Archbishop of Canterbury and read a letter of greeting and congratulations from the Archbishop of Canterbury. After serving for nine years as Archbishop, the Most Rev. Henri Luke Orombi (a Board member of WRF) officially handed over the spiritual rod (a cross) to his successor, now the Most Rev. Stanley Ntagali, symbolizing the transfer of spiritual authority from one Archbishop to another.

  • By Raymond Baguma the Anglican Church of Uganda Has Consecrated
    By Raymond Baguma THE Anglican Church of Uganda has consecrated an American priest as bishop to oversee Christian congregations that have split from the main Episcopal Church in the US over the issue of homosexuality. John Guernsey was consecrated at St. James Cathedral in Mbarara town yesterday in a ceremony, presided over by the Church of Uganda Archbishop Henry Luke Orombi. He was assisted by bishops from Canada, Argentina, Kenya, Rwanda and Nigeria, and priests from the US. Prime Minister Prof. Apollo Nsibambi represented President Yoweri Museveni. Guernsey, who has been the Vicar of All Saint’s Church in the parish of Woodbridge, Virginia, will return to the US and lead the 33 parishes that have recognized the Church of Uganda’s authority. “As I assume this responsibility of providing Episcopal oversight and care for the church of Uganda congregations in the US, I am excited about helping these churches catch the fire of mission which the Church of Uganda so passionately demonstrates”, Guernsey said. “In America, we must recapture the priority of evangelism, the urgency of outreach into our communities and the need to reach young people and raise leaders of the next generations. I pray that the spirit of revival comes to us where so many are lost.” Guernsey’s consecration came just three days after Kenya’s Archbishop Benjamin Nzimbi consecrated two American priests as bishops. The 77 million-strong Anglican Communion has been split since its 2.4 million- member US branch consecrated Gene Robinson as the first gay bishop four years ago. The US Church accuses Africans of invading their turf.
