His Eminence Emmanuel Cardinal Wamala has challenged Ugandans never to be derailed by hard situations to forget God but rather grow stronger in faith and in God the provider of everything.
Cardinal Wamala pointing at the potrait of Mother Mary during his homily at Try Prayer!It works Contest.
In his message at the awarding of the best students in the Try prayer! It works! Contest organized by Holy Cross Family Ministries at their offices in Nsambya, Cardinal Wamala said prayer brings people together and to God, giving a new sense of direction and understanding.
He hailed Holy Cross Family Ministries East Africa for helping students learn prayer especially the ‘’Holy Rosary’’ that healed the founder of Holy Cross Family Ministries, Servant of God, Patrick Peyton, CSC who had almost failed to be ordained a priest because he was suffering from Tuberculosis in the 20th Century.
He also urged students to put God first to everything that they will achieve their dreams.
The director of Holy Cross Family Ministries East Africa Fr. Lenard Olobo, CSC said they are striving to see that families and communities put their discernment in prayer not witchcraft or other gods.
