Apostle
Alex Mitala has called upon his predecessor, Bishop Joshua Lwere to join forces
and fight homosexuality and pornography in Uganda
The former head of the Born Again fraternity in Uganda
said this one was one of the “greatest battles” he had fought during his reign.
In Coming Oversheer, Bishop Joshua Lwere
Mitala of Back to the Bible Truth Ministry urged
Bishop Lwere “to be strong and courageous and to know that there is great
responsibility upon him as a leader and above all continue to live an exemplary
Christian life.”
“Some Ugandans are praising homosexuality and some
believe it is their right but you should stand not to allow this moral decay in
this country,” said Mitala during the consecration ceremony of the leaders of
the Born Again fraternity at Kololo ceremonial grounds in Kampala on Saturday.
The function was presided over by the Karamoja
Affairs Minister, Hon. Janet Kataaha Museveni, who also doubles as the First
Lady.
Out-going Overseer, Apostle Alex Mitala
Mitala said though majority Ugandans are
Christians, “there is still a lot of witchcraft going on in the country which
is also experienced in sports where people still hold a mentality that when
they lose a match they think they have been be-witched.”
“There is a lot of corruption both within the
church and outside which I have always fought but you should take on from where
I have stopped,” added Mitala.
He encouraged the other elected leaders to be
hardworking, accountable and stand in support with the overseer to live an
exemplary Christian life.
Lwere said he is to ensure unity among the members
and followers of Christ, foster training among all pastors and leaders so as to
be ordained.
He also pledged to
changing the corporate image of the born again faith and to ensure that people
within the faith are assisted to come out of poverty.
