60th Anniversary of the Canonization of the Ugandan Saints, the Martyrs: Relics exhibition set

Today, September 9th, marks a historic occasion as His Grace Paul Ssemogerere, the Archbishop of Kampala, oversaw the return of the Uganda Martyrs’ relics from Rome.

Delivered by Fr. Nyombi Richard, the relics include chains that bound the Martyrs, crosses made from the trees where Noa Mawaggali, Matia Mulumba, and Charles Lwanga were tied, the jawbone of Matia Mulumba, and the bone of Kalori Lwanga.

These sacred items will be displayed for public viewing for one month during a historical exhibition commemorating the 60th anniversary of the Uganda Martyrs’ canonization.

The exhibition, organized by Uganda Martyrs University, the Government of Uganda, and the Catholic Church, will officially be launched on September 14, 2024, at Uganda Martyrs University Lubaga Campus.

We shall bring you the updates about this exhibition starting on 14th September 2024.
