*UCU Hosts Clergy Children's Fellowship to Strengthen Faith and Community*
On 25 February 2025, Uganda Christian University (UCU) hosted the Clergy Children's Fellowship, a gathering designed to foster a supportive community where clergy children could share their experiences, uplift one another, and strengthen their faith.
Organized and coordinated by the Church Relations Department, the event brought together participants from all the 39 dioceses of the Church of Uganda, creating a space for unity and spiritual growth.
In his address, Rev. Brian Muhereza, Associate Dean of Bishop Tucker School of Divinity and Theology, emphasized the importance of unity among clergy children. He urged them to embrace their unique identity, find strength in their shared experiences, and support one another in their spiritual journeys.
Rev. Dr. Richard Mulindwa, Manager of Church Relations, expressed deep appreciation to UCU's Vice Chancellor, acknowledging his unwavering commitment to clergy families. He encouraged the attendees to lead by example, uphold discipline, and prioritize their studies as a way of honoring both their calling and family legacy.
Commending the Church Relations Department for its vision, Bishop Dr. Joel Obetia proposed making the fellowship a weekly event to further strengthen the bond among clergy children. He emphasized the need for consistent support in both their spiritual and academic growth.
The fellowship was well attended by clergy children from all over Uganda, representing the 39 dioceses of the province. This event reinforced the significance of faith, education, and community in shaping the next generation of Christian leaders.
