Fr. Kituuma's Legacy Lives On - Fr. Patrick Museveni
Masaka | 6 March 2026
The faith community is mourning the loss of Fr. Herman Dr. Kituuma, a devoted priest of Masaka Catholic Diocese who passed on to eternal glory this morning, Friday, March 6, 2026, at Lubaga Hospital.
This is according to the obituary of Bishop Serverus Jjumba, Bishop of Masaka Diocese, signed by Fr. Charles Jude Jjuko, Chancellor of the Diocese.
Rev. Fr. Patrick Museveni, Director of Social Communications Department Hoima Catholic Diocese and Radio Maria Uganda Hoima 90.7FM, a former student of Fr. Kituuma at Katigondo National Major Seminary, remembers him as a guiding light who instilled self-reliance in his students.
Fr. Kituuma, a Rector, teacher of Greek, Bible and Farmer, taught us all "to be at the Seminary not as one at a Picknick, but a place where to unlearn, relearn and learn - not to be a burden to anyone," added Fr. Museveni.
Ordained in 1984, Fr. Kituuma served as Rector of Katigondo National Major Seminary from 2007 to 2023, leaving an indelible mark on the lives of many.
His funeral will take place at Bukalasa Seminary Cemetery on Monday, March 9, 2026, with a Holy Mass at 12:00 noon.
May his legacy inspire us to emulate his dedication and service. May his soul rest in peace. Amen.
