From Uganda-
The Anglican Church of Uganda has created a new diocese in the western region to bring Christian services closer to believers.
The new South Ankole Diocese, which was carved out of Ankole and West Ankole Dioceses, brings the number of dioceses to 34.
The House of Bishops from the Church of the Province of Uganda on September 29 elected the Rev. Nathan Ahimbisibwe as the bishop for the newly-created South Ankole Diocese. The Rev. Ahimbisibwe was previously the Chaplain of St. James Chapel, Makerere University Business School.
According to the Rev. George Bagamuhunda, the provincial secretary, Ahimbisibwe's consecration and enthronement will take place at St. Matthew's Church Kyamate, Ntungamo District, on January 8 . A press statement issued yesterday, indicates that the Rev. Ahimbisibwe holds a Master of Arts Degree in Christian Education from the Reformed Theological Seminary in Jackson, Mississipi, USA, a Bachelor of Divinity from Uganda Christian University, Mukono and a Diploma in Education.
