UCU Sunday, celebrated every last Sunday of September, was set aside by the House of Bishops of the Church of Uganda, for the province to hold prayers for the church-founded institution.

In addition to the prayers, the UCU Sunday, which will be celebrated on Sunday, September 29, is intended to mobilize support and resources for various activities at UCU, as well as create awareness about developments at the institution. 

Sharing the 2024 UCU Sunday objectives, Professor Mushengyezi, said it is three-fold. 

“Our objectives include; praying for UCU; mobilizing financial resources to support UCU projects, especially infrastructural development; and to raise awareness about the university,” Professor Mushengyezi said.

He empowered the congregation and encouraged them to be ambassadors of UCU and take part in UCU Sunday.
