Praying for the dead now expensive! Namirembe Diocese to take 75% of condolences in funeral service

From Uganda-

Rev Canon Nelson Kaweesa, the Secretary of Namirembe diocese has said that 75% of the condolences will be retained by the church and the bereaved family will take 25%.

In a letter addressed to the different dignitaries in Namirembe Diocese, Rev Kaweesa said the decision was taken by the Diocesan Council.

He said collecting condolences will be conducted before the sermon to enable the ushers to count the money and divide it accordingly before the end of each service.

“75% of the condolence will be retained by the church to enable it pay for the items that were used in the service,” reads the letter in part.

He added that this arrangement includes funeral services held at home.
