MUKONO BISHOP CONFIRMS 50 AT NJERU, PREACHES ‘HOPE IN CHRIST THE PROMISE KEEPER’

NJERU – BUIKWE: More than 50 Christians were confirmed into the Anglican faith today at St. Stephen’s Church of Uganda, Njeru Parish, Nakibizzi Archdeaconry, by the Bishop of Mukono Diocese, Rt. Rev. Enos Kitto Kagodo.

Njeru Parish Priest Rev. Henry Kamya Katumba Ssalongo said the parish has made significant progress by God’s grace, commending Christians for sustaining ministry. He cited the ongoing construction of the new parish church headquarters as the major current project.

Ssalongo Katumba noted that the Gospel has been faithfully proclaimed and “yielded abundant fruit.” The parish has also elected new church leaders under the guidance of the Holy Spirit, and he pledged to ensure they receive comprehensive training in sound doctrine and proper Church practice.

Nakibizzi Archdeacon Ven. Canon Robert Kiwanuka Mulinde presented some of the archdeaconry’s newly elected leaders to the Bishop.

He reported that ministry in the archdeaconry has started well, especially in mobilizing Christians to establish churches in various communities.

Bishop Kagodo congratulated the new leaders and urged them to build on the foundation laid by their predecessors, commending outgoing leaders for exemplary service. He thanked Njeru Christians for supporting the new Mukono Diocesan Cathedral construction, saying the project “will bring distinction to the Diocese and further glorify God.”

He also appreciated their care for clergy and their participation as he marked 30 years of marriage and three years of episcopal ministry as the third Bishop of Mukono.

In his sermon, Bishop Kagodo reminded Christians of this year’s diocesan theme: “Christ is our peace and has made us one” (Ephesians 2:14).

Preaching from Numbers 23:16-26, he recounted how King Balak hired the prophet Balaam to curse Israel, but God instructed Balaam to speak only what He commanded.

Despite sacrifices and changing locations, Balaam blessed Israel each time, declaring: “God is not a man, that He should lie. If He has blessed, no one can reverse it. No spell or curse can work against God’s people.”

Lesson: When God pronounces blessing over you, no enemy, fear, or inducement can revoke it. God does not lie or change His mind.

On the week’s theme, “Hope in Christ the Promise Keeper,” the Bishop urged the congregation to receive Christ as Savior, for He alone secures our promises and the life redeemed by the Lord is sealed by the Holy Spirit.

“Some people harbour doubts, but I appeal to all of you today to believe in accordance with God’s counsel so He may fulfil His promises to you,” he said.

“Our God does not change, deceive, or waver like mortals. He alone turns evil into blessing and fights our battles.”

Following the sermon, more than 30 people came forward to profess faith in Christ. Rev. Babra Nakityo Kkoosi presented them, and Bishop Kagodo prayed for them and pronounced a blessing.

As he confirmed and commissioned the candidates, Bishop Kagodo exhorted them not to depart from their church and urged them to serve the Lord and proclaim the Gospel so others may come to salvation. He reminded them of the Third Commandment.

Maama Catherine Kitto, the Bishop’s wife, encouraged the newly confirmed to remain steadfast in their vows and adhere to the teaching received, so they may mature into strong Christians who contribute meaningfully to the nation.

She urged the congregation to continue confessing God as Lord, for He stands ready to work in their lives.
