A Message from the Principal
Thirty years ago, some friends and I attempted to climb Mt. Elgon. It was a humbling experience, as we were underprepared and overconfident. After one of us got sick, we abandoned our attempt before reaching the summit. Earlier this year, I decided to try again with my daughter and our friend. I am much older but better prepared and hopefully a little less foolish. Along the way, there were moments when I doubted, as I looked at the difficult road ahead. “How are we going to make it?” However, there were also moments when I could look back and was encouraged that we had come so far. By God’s grace, we reached the summit and gained a new appreciation of what is possible.
Life is often like this. There are moments of despair and discouragement as we get stuck along the way and maybe are tempted to abandon the difficult journey. We have faced many challenges during our time here at Uganda Baptist Seminary. “Should we continue? Is the attempt to do extraordinary things worth the effort?” One of the things that encourages us to go forward is the memory of where we have come from. In 1988, the first group of students began their studies – Class #1. At the time, the challenges ahead were tremendous. Our predecessors decided that the cost was worth the effort. We have continued that attitude of perseverance. This year, the 22nd and 23rd Bachelor, the 45th Diploma, and the 28th Certificate classes will all graduate. God has brought us an incredible distance. May God continue to walk with us as we strive towards the mountain peaks ahead.
