“Children, you are blessed to be living in Uganda because you are descendants of the holy Martyrs of Uganda..."

The Superior of the Holy Cross Fathers, Fr Patrick Neary has asked children to love the Blessed Virgin Mary and to seek her intercession when they get a need. He also encouraged them to pray the Rosary.

"Children, you are blessed to be living in Uganda because you are descendants of the holy Martyrs of Uganda. The Martyrs loved Mary and always prayed the Rosary. Therefore, you should also love Mary. In good and bad times, just pray the Rosary and Mary will plead for you before God."
