Holy Cross Family Ministries spear headed the prayer guild members to Kiwamirembe shrine on 14th October 2016 to dedicate the families to our lady.
This shrine is known as Our Lady of Peace Prayer Centre Kiwamirembe, located on the hill at Kajjansi on Entebbe Road, Central region of Uganda.
Originally, it was a site of prayer for peace during Uganda’s devastating civil wars; Kiwamirembe welcomes pilgrims for overnight vigils, daily Masses and Good Friday.
Many people take pilgrims to this place because it’s known as a Holy Place for Mother Mary.
More than 100 Christians attended the pilgrim. This is an annual event that takes place in October, the month of the Holy Rosary.

The way of the cross followed to Calvary and after some few minutes of rest, the celebration of mass started led by the assistant parish priest of Nsambya Parish, Fr. Ntege.
In his homily, Fr. Ntege (Nsambya Parish) urged us to pray to God after the pilgrim so that we are worth before Him.
