Universal Chastity Education (UCE) announces that an interview of longtime UCE volunteer Ugandan, Walubo Jude, will air Tuesday, April 9, at 3:30pm MDT on Eternal Word Television Network (EWTN) channel and online.
He is eloquently interviewed by "Uju" Ekeocha, who is herself a spokesperson on how Africans value life, family, and the chastity strategy. Jude, a co-founder of UCE in 2004, served through 2017 in a term as UCE-Uganda National Coordinator. He describes how UCE encourages respect for sexuality and saving sex only for a faithful marriage, principles that are helping save lives. He shares that most Ugandan families have suffered the loss of someone dear to them from HIV/AIDS.
Americans met and heard Jude in 2014 when he spoke at the UCE World AIDS Day event (Colorado) and summarized the story of UCE and how Emmanuel Cardinal Wamala had endorsed UCE in 2006 and provided counsel as patron since then.
UCE co-founders, Drs. Kim and Ken Dernovsek, UCE-USA Director Sarah Smith, Ugandans Walubo Jude and UCE-Uganda (Masaka) Coordinator Fr Deusdedit, and UCE volunteers Trent Smith and Sam and Sara Jane Ebersole, gathered in Uganda for a June 2023 audience with Cardinal Wamala. (see photo above)
Drs Dernovsek reminded Cardinal Wamala of his words of inspiration, emailed to them in 2013: “Thank you for your continued support of the apostolate promoting chastity and fidelity; We may never be able to measure the results; but the all-knowing God knows our efforts and will reward us.” They then reported to His Eminence that UCE, now in its 20th Anniversary year, has recorded 750,000 commitments to chastity in Uganda, Burundi, and Tanzania.
