WE THE YOUTHS

“So remember your creator while you are still young before those dismal days and years come when you will say “I don’t enjoy life” Ecclesiastes 12:1.

The Catholic Youth Organization in Diocese of Nzekokere (CYO) is a youth led organization established with the major objective of uplifting the spirituality of catholic youths and to inculcate into them, the church doctrines and teachings. We draw our inspiration from the life of our patron saint, Charles Lwanga who was one of the 22 Ugandan Martyrs who converted from paganism.

He inspired and encouraged his companions to remain chaste and fruitful. He was a vibrant youth and a true catholic. He protected his companions from the immoral acts and homosexual demands of the Babandan ruler, king Mwanga. Charles was sentenced to death along with his companions as they were considered a threat to the rule of the evil king Mwanga. He told his executioners that he was very glad to be dying for the faith.

He was burnt to death by Mwanga’s order on June 3rd, 1986. Pope Paul VI canonized Charles Lwanga and his companions on June 22nd, 1964. He is until this day known as St.CharlesLwanga, Patron saint of African Youths.
