Jesus’ relationship with his disciples and his humanity, as revealed to us in the mystery of his Incarnation, Gospel and Paschal Mystery, shows us the extent to which God loves our humanity and makes his own our joys and sufferings, our hopes and our concerns. Everything about Christ reminds us that he knows well our world and its need for redemption, and calls us to become actively engaged in this mission: "You Will Be My Witnesses"(Acts 1:8). No one is excluded; no one need feel distant or removed from this compassionate love.

We have also launched a video on the Missionary Month of October on the Uganda Catholic Televion (Uctv) and a Radio advert/animation on Radio Maria, Uganda.

We intend to have a Novena of Masses on Radio Maria animated by nine (9) parishes before World Mission Sunday on 23rd October 2022. The faithful are encouraged to pray the holy Rosary in the family and communities for the success of the World wide Mission of the Church. And as they gather for the recitation of the Rosary, other prayers and for the Eucharist on Mission Sunday, to be generous in contributing money for Universal Solidarity Fund.
