KAMPALA - The assistant Bishop of the Anglican Diocese of Kampala, the Rt. Rev. Dr. Hannington Mutebi has asked Christians to desist from apathetic tendencies, which he said, have caused many people to fail in their aspirations.  

He encouraged people to always have big dreams and also, to pursue them with confidence.

“Don’t despise the small beginnings of your life. Even those skyscrapers you see were initially ideas and dreams of some people. The dream you have is the seed that God has planted in you. But of course, the seed has to be nurtured. In the case of students, the seed, or dream, is nurtured by education. 

So, my dear children, the students, I urge you to be serious with your education. And you must not forget God because he is the beginning and the end of everything. If you remove God from the equation of your life, your figures will not balance,” Mutebi said.
