Bunyoro cathedral gets facelift


From Uganda- (I've worshiped here)

THE renovation of the Bunyoro Kitara Anglican Diocese church in Hoima municipality has started. The renovation of the 39-year-old St. Peter’s Cathedral, Duhaga started on Friday and is expected to last five months.

The project co-ordinator, Ronald Mwesigwa, on Saturday said the renovation would cost sh500m. So far, sh350m had been raised.

Mwesigwa said most of the money was raised from Christians and friends within and outside Uganda.

“The project will include putting up a wall fence, plastering the walls, rewiring the power system, repairing the ceiling, the floor and roof.”

Others will include erecting a staircase, working on the tower and construction of the toilets.

He added that the church had started leaking and they saw an urgent need to work on it.

“We also wanted our church to look modern,” he said.

He said the site would remain closed to the general public to avoid accidents as a result from falling debris. Prayers will in the meantime be held in Duhaga Boys Primary School main hall.
