On Friday 14th February 2014, St. Matthias Mulumba Senior Seminary, Tindinyo, celebrated its Silver Jubilee in a colourful ceremony that was presided over by the Apostolic Nuncio to Kenya and South Sudan, H.E. Archbishop Charles Daniel Balvo.
The celebration coincided with the Feast Day of St. Matthias Mulumba, the first Uganda Martyr, who is the patron saint of the seminary that is named after him.
In his message, Archbishop Balvo, who has been serving the Church as a priest for 38 years now, said seminaries offer seminarians a chance to forge long lasting bonds among themselves and with God.
