All Christians know the place of Mount Sion in the Bible and the meaning it had for its people of the Old
Testament, and the meaning it has for us, people of
the New Covenant – it is a multifauceted symbol. In
the Archdiocese of Kampala, we too have our own Mt.
Sion... 
With a deep sense of gratitude, I return
the glory and honor to God for the unique
spiritual and material achievements. He
has bestowed on our Mt sion Prayer Centre and indeed to
us all this year but also since we started
His work in 1991.The power and blessing
of God is very great ... History of Mount Sion Prayer Centre Bukalango
Humble Beginning
The whole story started in 1992 with the Holyspirit seminar- where Reverend Father Magembe got enligtened and empowered concerning the vision about renewal.
This idea was strengthened by the Retreat he attended in India at Portter Devine Retreat Center. After Which he started weekend Retreats at Kiziba Catholic Parish Masuulita in Uganda with a handful of people, mainly school children from the surroundings of the Parish.
As the retreat attendees begun experiencing the miraculous presence of God with many signs and miracles, more people begun to come in bigger numbers and from different Dioceses.
By 1998 there was not enough room to accommodate these big numbers of people. So from weekend Retreats the program was extended to a full week, -every last week of the month.
In 1999 Fr. Magembe introduced the idea of transferring this program to a larger place to The Arch- Bishop of Kampala who happily accepted suggesting Naddangira Parish as a possible location.
In 2000 Bukalango Sub-Parish was chosen and in Feb. 2001 Mt. Sion was opened.
