Uganda Martyr Charles Lwanga

Lwanga was burnt to death on Mwanga’s orders on June 3, 1886 at the current Catholic Shrine in Namugongo. Pope Paul VI canonized Charles Lwanga and his companions on June 22,1964. The Catholic Church celebrates his memorial on June 3rd of the Roman calendar. Charles is the Patron of the African Youth of Catholic Action.

According to official Catholic Church documents, Lwanga was a crusader of faithfulness and chastity. It is said he jealously guarded his companions against the alleged “immoral acts and homosexual demands of then ruler of Buganda, Kabaka Mwanga.

Prior to being burnt to death, Lwanga was so peaceful and cheerful that he even requested to be untied such that he would help to assemble the sticks of the fire that he was to face.
