Patriarch Jerold Gliege, the Evangelical Orthodox Catholic (EOC)'s global leader is in Uganda for pastoral work. Gliege arrived at Entebbe International Airport on Wednesday at around 11:00pm where he was received by a team of clergy lead by EOC Bishop Jacinto Kibuuka.
Gliege is expected this morning to visit prayer centre in Kibuku district where he is to meet church leaders.
Earlier on, Kibuuka, said Gliege would traverse 20 church centers in eastern Uganda that are under his jurisdiction.
Kibuuka said the global leader while on course of visit may also visit President Yoweri Museveni.
"He may meet the President for some talks as the head of faith on international basis. He is going to meet Christians in the centers we have opened in eastern Uganda such as Kaliro, Namutumba, Namulembe among many others," said Kibuuka.
"As he is making a pastoral visit in Africa, he is coming to Uganda to look at the challenges we have as church so we can sit together and devise means on how best we can handle them. He will also preach during the course of Divine Liturgy at MAMRE prayer center in Namugongo on Sunday."
