BUSHENYI, UGANDA – Bushenyi Resident District Commissioner Emmy Ngabirano’s thanksgiving service held on Thursday, October 8, 2026, raised 40 million shillings meant to complete St. Peter’s Cathedral Bweranyangi which is nearing completion.
The well-organized service was presided over by the Bishop of West Ankole Diocese, Rt. Rev. Johnson Twinomujuni, and was held at the Bushenyi District headquarters.

The Bishop also called upon every Christian, whether rich or poor, to always thank the Almighty God for successes achieved.
Many speakers at the service thanked the Bishop and RDC Ngabirano’s friends for the commendable work done at the diocese and in the district.
