A warm welcome to Bugema University! As your University Chaplain, it is both a privilege and a joy to walk alongside you as you embark on or continue your academic journey. Here at Bugema, we are committed to nurturing not only intellectual growth but also the spiritual and moral development that shapes compassionate, principled leaders for our world.

In Jeremiah 29:11 (NIV), we read:
“’For I know the plans I have for you,’ declares the Lord, ‘plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future.’”

This powerful promise reassures us that our lives are guided by a loving and purposeful God. University life can be filled with challenges, uncertainties, and moments of doubt. Yet, even in these times, we are reminded that God’s plans for us are rooted in hope, prosperity, and a future beyond what we can imagine. When you face academic pressures, personal struggles, or moments of searching for meaning, remember that you are never alone; God’s presence and guidance are ever near.

As the Chaplaincy, our mission is to create a community where faith and learning thrive together. We offer a welcoming space for prayer, worship, and fellowship, as well as confidential counseling and pastoral care. You are encouraged to participate in our spiritual programs, join in times of reflection, or simply reach out when you need someone to talk to. Whether you come from a strong faith background or are just beginning to explore spiritual questions, you have a valued place here.

Let us journey together with open hearts and minds, embracing the diversity, respect, and unity that define Bugema University. May you discover not only academic success but also deeper purpose, peace, and joy during your time here. My door is always open for you.

May the Almighty God bless you.
