Remembering a remarkable and wonderful Kisiizi Hospital Chaplain…

A man who inspired and encouraged many patients, staff and members of the surrounding communities during his time as Kisiizi chaplain and subsequently when he retired to Mbarara but remained active with radio and other ministries.  He is remembered with great affection for his humour, gentleness and great passion for evangelism and discipleship.  We are grateful to Bishop F. Mwesigwa for permission to make this book available on the Kisiizi website. Click the link to open the pdf book:
