The following are some of the benefits of the course:
Deepening of self-awareness, in particular
greater awareness of one’s feelings and
ability to deal with them
Learning basic counseling skills including
listening, empathy, exploration, self-
disclosure, summarizing, paraphrasing,
constructive criticism, dealing with reluctant
and resistant clients, dealing with
transference and counter-transference
Improvement of relationships with
community members, superiors, subjects and
subordinates
Acquisition of conflict management skills
Acquiring of ability to develop and facilitate
support groups
Receiving the possibility of being counseled
on personal issues (this service is offered
only if asked for by a participant)
Profiting from Group Therapy and becoming
equipped with skills of how to start and run
Growth Groups and support groups
Improvement of basic skills of day-to-day
human interaction
Sharing of experiences on selected topics
including prayer, liturgy, pastoral work, self-
sustenance, caring for dependents in ways
that do not jeopardize pastoral ministry,

5
Each day participants are exposed to:
a) A one-hour session on basic counseling skills
b) A one-to-one counseling practice session
followed by evaluation
c) Growth group sessions, and/or practice of
counseling in small groups
6
PASTORAL USE OF THE COMPUTER
While computer courses can be done anywhere in the
country, it is not everywhere that pastoral agents are
taught how to apply their acquired computer
knowledge to ease and facilitate their pastoral work.
The course covers computer basics including:
Microsoft Word
Microsoft Excel
Microsoft Publisher
Microsoft PowerPoint
Facilitator: Fr. Gerald Lwanga
Fr. Simon Peter Kyambadde
Dates: 3rd – 23rd February 2019
1st – 21st March 2020
7th – 27th March 2021
Course cost: UGX 210,000/

Introduction to Data Base
Typing Instructor
The Internet
Emails
Social Media: WhatsApp, Facebook, Skype…
As well as that it helps participants to:
With basic book-keeping knowledge, be
able to generate parish monthly,
quarterly and annual financial reports
with ease
Create registers for baptism, confirmation
and matrimonial records on software for
co-ordinated storage and easy retrieval of
information
Explore the role of the Internet in the
New Evangelization: its potential,
limitations and dangers
Study the ethical implications of social
media
It is of great advantage if participants come with their
own laptops. That way they can practice lessons and
do assignments in their own rooms. They are also
more likely to continue practicing when they get back
home. However, there are institute computers
available for those who do not come with their own.
Thanks to our generous donors, each course costs
Uganda Shilling 10,000/- per day, including
accommodation, meals and course fees. You can
compute how much a course costs simply by counting
the number of days in it, including day of arrival and
day of departure.

PRIESTS@FIVE YEARS
Every stage in life has its joys and challenges, so do
the first five years of priestly ministry. Among the
topics covered in this course will be:
The identity of a diocesan priest
Community life; parish priest/curate
relationship
From seminary to ministry: the transition
from being in formation to becoming a
formator
Learning from the job: the challenge of
receiving responsibilities for which one
was not adequately prepared
Intimacy with Christ: relationship with
the Lord as the only basis of an effective
pastoral ministry
Self-sustenance and ministry
Facilitators: Rt. Rev. Joseph Anthony Zziwa
St. Augustine Institute Staff
Dates 12th -25th May 2019
10th – 23rd May 2020
09th 21st May 2021

Like other courses at St. Augustine’s institute this
course involves a lot of sharing and exchanging of
experience.
“Ongoing formation is a duty, in the first instance, for young priests. They should have frequent and systematic meetings which, while they continue the sound and serious formation they have received in the seminary, will gradually lead young priests to grasp and incarnate the unique wealth of God's gift which is the priesthood and to express their capabilities and ministerial attitude, also through an ever more convinced and responsible insertion in the presbyterate, and therefore in communion and co - responsibility with all their brethren…
With priests who have just come out of the seminary, a
certain sense of "having had enough is quite”
understandable when faced with new times of study
and meeting. But the idea that priestly formation ends
on the day one leaves the seminary is false and
dangerous, and needs to be totally rejected…”
(Post–synodal Apostolic Exhortation Pastores Dabo
Vobis to the Bishops, Clergy and Faithful on the
Formation of Priests in the Circumstances of the
Present Day. Number 76)

25 YEARS PRIESTLY REUNION
Meet with your priest-classmates to celebrate
together the gift of priesthood: reminisce, relax, share
together on various topics: how you chose to become
a priest, the joys and challenges you have
encountered, the transfers you have had, how you
manage with dependents, the ministry of the
sacraments, the encounter with the Lord in prayer,
just what fires your priesthood.
It must be pointed out that the meeting of the priests
celebrating 25 years is not meant to be a retreat. The
temptation to talk with comrades not seen in 25
years is far too much! This period is used exclusively
for organized sharing on the 25 years of priestly
ministry. Participants are at liberty to organize their
retreats as usual elsewhere.
Facilitators: St. Augustine’s Institute Staff
Dates 16th – 22nd June 2019
21st – 27th June 2020

Jubilarians are urged to contact each other ahead of
the reunion at St. Augustine’s institute, to encourage
each other to attend and to remind each other of the
dates. If accidentally, some names are not included on
the list here, those who know the left-out members
are encouraged to inform and invite them. The
reunion also serves as an occasion to pray for
deceased members of the group, for those who left
active ministry, and for those who never made it to
the priesthood but chose other vocations.

IGNATIAN RETREAT
“
He who goes about to reform the world must begin with
himself, or he loses his labor.” - Ignatius of Loyola.
As priests and religious we have embraced a vocation
which requires us to “reform the world.” Yet we can
spend the whole of our life without serious effort to
reform ourselves. Ignatius tells us that this is wastage
of time. However, he does more than that: he
proposes a program that over many centuries has
become time-tested and has transformed numerous
ordinary men and women into saints and martyrs,
Facilitator: Fr. George Ukken SJ
Dates: 1st July – 2nd August 2019
16th – 25th September 2019

beginning with Ignatius himself and his companions.
This is the “Spiritual Exercises”.
Not that we have not tried to reform ourselves, to
grow from sin and embrace virtue. How many
retreats and recollections we have attended, how
many confessions, how many good resolutions! Yet
we often have the experience over time, of realizing
that we are not much different than before.
There is no guarantee that the Ignatian retreat will
transform you; there are many who have attended it
and remained the same, or become worse. But that is
no reason not to give it a trial. The fact that many
have been led to sanctity through the Spiritual
Exercises is good enough reason to try them. After all,
the decision to allow God to transform you depends
on you.

COURSES: PHILLIP, JOHN, MOSES
Course John was first introduced in 2017 by a member of the St.
Andrew’s School of
Evangelization in Canada,
(http://www.sase.ca/index.

collaborators in Uganda. The St.
Andrew School of Evangelization
is a Catholic ministry of lay
people and clergy, evangelizing,
proclaiming the gospel in the
model of the apostle St. Andrew.
Andrew, upon encountering the Christ, first went to get his
brother Simon Peter. (Cf. John1:35-42)
Their mission states: “We want to bring the 'Simon Peters' of the

world to Jesus, who will serve, preach, and love our Lord Jesus
more, and better than ourselves, being bold witnesses of the
saving message of our Redeemer, Jesus Christ.”
In the years 2019-2021 three courses of this nature are scheduled,
namely:

with the risen Jesus and receiving new life.

discipleship of Jesus
3. Course Moses which develops the leadership skills of
people who hold posts of responsibility in the Church.
The course will be conducted in collaboration with Koinonia
John the Baptist (www.koinoniajb.org) a Catholic Charismatic
organization based in South Africa at the service of New
Evangelization.
