The encouragement was sounded today morning by the Diocesan Secretary, the Rev. Can. Nelson Walina while officially opening the Diocesan Performance Evaluation Meeting for the first quarter at Kamaiba Youth Centre in Kasese town.

The meeting was aimed at evaluating the implementation of the projects that had been planned for a period of three months from January to March this year in all Archdeaconries across the Diocese.
