In his sermon, Bishop Emeritus Can. Jackson Matovu appealed to the students to be cautious with the way they apply provisions of the dotcom era, and pick out only those with attributes portraying them as decent citizens, and avoid bad ones especially highlighting pornography.
Religious student leaders of St. John’s Secondary School Mukono have been awarded certificates of appreciation for their work in mobilizing fellow learners to be subordinate to the Lord and grow with socially acceptable conduct.
The award function coincided with the launch of the worship handbook, a hymn book for the Anglican faith learners, and the blessing for P7, S4 and S6 finalists of the school who are writing their 2025 UNEB examinations beginning next October.
The school Chaplain Olivia Nakyanzi who headed the team that authored the hymn book, said the handbook was necessitated as a tool of covering up missing components in the bid to enable worshipers to follow proceedings more closely.
The Parish priest, Rev. Ivan Kiberu ushered in students’ leaders who were handed certificates by the Archdeacon for Nassuuti Archdeaconry, Ven. Kenneth Lukwago Kampi, who lashed at fathers who have discarded their responsibilities in their homes, and left it in the hands of mothers.
He expressed appreciation to school management for thinking of the certificates to student leaders, saying it is an incentive for them to put in extra efforts in mobilizing colleagues to be more responsive to their religious obligations.
Ven. Lukwago observed that without the word of God, management of youngsters is cumbersome, and so thanked the school management for efforts made to cover loopholes created by adamant parents who simply dump their children to schools and forget their own roles of bringing them up into upright citizens.
In his sermon, Bishop Emeritus Can. Jackson Matovu appealed to the students to be cautious with the way they apply provisions of the dotcom era, and pick out only those with attributes portraying them as decent citizens, and avoid bad ones especially highlighting pornography.
Bp. Matovu also advised them against jumping on the bandwagon of political attraction, and instead concentrate on their studies and wait to get into politics at the right time.
