Uganda Blessings

by Gus A Zuehlke

Gus, a 1980 graduate of Notre Dame University, has been what you might call a "quasi ex officio" participant in our Uganda Initiative for several years. In cooperation with a number of Ugandan bishops and priests, several of whom are ND graduates, Gus began to help out with the refugee situation in Northern Uganda in 2003. In this part of Uganda, which is not far from Darfur, there has been a rebellion going on for the past twenty years. Gus undertook his ministry under the guidance of Fr. Paul Doyle, CSC. He began by giving a retreat to the Ugandan Parliament which inspired a number of Members of parliament to give more help to the suffering people in the North. The book you read tells the rest of his story. (Forward by Fr. Theodore Hesburgh, C.S.C.)
