Ssekiriba Kyataka Devotion
Overview
The Ssekiriba Kyataka Devotion is a parish-based movement dedicated to praying for the souls in purgatory. Founded in 2002, the devotion was established at St. Charles Lwanga Ntinda Parish to raise awareness about the need to pray for departed souls, the sick, and the needy.
Its work stems from a deep belief that those who have died depend on the prayers of the living, and that through intercession, their souls may be cleansed and welcomed into eternal rest with God.
