Saint Charles Lwanga and Companions
Feast Day: June 3
One of 22 Ugandan martyrs, Charles Lwanga is the patron of youth and Catholic
action in most of tropical Africa. He protected his fellow pages, aged 13 to 30,
from the homosexual demands of the Bagandan ruler, Mwanga, and encouraged
and instructed them in the Catholic faith during their imprisonment for refusing
the ruler’s demands. Charles first learned of Christ’s teachings from two retainers
in the court of Chief Mawulugungu. While a catechumen, he entered the royal
household as assistant to Joseph Mukaso, head of the court pages.
On the night of Mukaso’s martyrdom for encouraging the African youths to resist
Mwanga, Charles requested and received baptism. Imprisoned with his friends,
Charles’s courage and belief in God inspired them to remain chaste and faithful.
For his own unwillingness to submit to the immoral acts and his efforts to
safeguard the faith of his friends, Charles was burned to death at Namugongo on
June 3, 1886, by Mwanga’s order. When Pope Paul VI canonized these 22 martyrs
on October 18, 1964, he also made reference to the Anglican pages martyred for
the same reason.
Like Charles Lwanga, we are all teachers and witnesses to Christian living by
the examples of our own lives. We are all called upon to spread the word of God, Sequence
whether by word or deed. By remaining courageous and unshakable in our faith Veni, Sancte Spiritus
during times of great moral and physical temptation, we live as Christ lived. Come, Holy Spirit, come!
