Archbishop Kaziimba Mugalu Tips Couples on Making Marriage Work at the Kabandas Celebration

By Joseph Masereka & Rusia Tibara

The Archbishop of the Church of Uganda, His Grace Stephen Kaziimba Mugalu, has urged couples to rely more on God instead of traditional healers. 

Archbishop Kaziimba made the call as he was recently presiding over a thanksgiving service at All Saints’ Church at Manyangwa in Gayaza, Wakiso District, for Dr. Obed Kabanda and his wife Louise Kabugho.

The Kabandas were celebrating 20 years of marriage, Dr Kabanda’s PhD and Kabugho’s third degree. 

Kabanda holds a PhD in organisational learning and leadership while his wife Kabugho got her third degree in human resource management from Claremont University California, USA.

He is currently the senior director of Global partnerships and acting lead, development at Global Fund for women, an organization in the USA that supports women’s organizations in over 170 countries.

Archbishop Kaziimba urged married women to always practice patience, humility and resilience.  He says some women have been victims of witchcraft looking for favours and children. 

The retired bishop for South Rwenzori Diocese Zebedee Masereka Kahangwa testified that he has spent fifty-six years in marriage.  Masereka said he is praying for Obed and Louise and looks forward to joining the Kabanda family celebrating seventy years of marriage.

Dr Kabanda thanked God for the far the Lord has brought them as a family. God has blessed the Kabanda family with four children, with the eldest currently at university.

Archbishop Kaziimba launched the couple’s book titled ‘From Dream to Destiny: A tale of Patience, Humility and Resilience.’
