ENTRANCE<br />

NEARER MY GOD TO THEE<br />

Nearer my God to thee, Nearer to thee!<br />

E’en tho’ it be a cross that raiseth me;<br />

Still all my song shall be, Nearer my God to thee,<br />

Nearer my God to thee, Nearer to thee!<br />

Though like the wanderer, the sun gone down,<br />

Darkness be over me, my rest a stone;<br />

Yet in my dreams I’d be, Nearer my God to thee,<br />

Nearer my God to thee, Nearer to thee!<br />

There let the way appear, steps unto heav’n<br />

All that thou sendest me, in mercy giv’n;<br />

Angels to beckon me, Nearer my God to thee,<br />

Nearer my God to thee, Nearer to thee!<br />

Then with my waking thoughts,<br />

bright with Thy praise,<br />

Out of my stony griefs,<br />

Bethel I’ll raise;<br />

So by my woes to be,<br />

Nearer my God to thee,<br />

Nearer my God to thee,<br />

Nearer to thee!<br />

Or if on joyful wing,<br />

cleaving the sky,<br />

Sun, moon and stars forgot,<br />

upward I fly;<br />

Still all my song shall be,<br />

Nearer my God to thee,<br />

Nearer my God to thee,<br />

Nearer to thee!<br />

Though things go well with me, comfort in life,<br />

Friend, food and property money and all<br />

Still all I want shall be,<br />

Nearer my God to thee,<br />

Nearer my God to thee,<br />

Nearer to thee!<br />

KYRIE -CHOIR<br />

1ST READING - Tyron Amanya<br />

WISDOM CH 3: 1-9<br />

1 But the souls of the just are in the hand of God and no torment of death<br />

will touch them<br />

2 In the eyes of the foolish, they seemed to die, and their departure was<br />

considered an affliction<br />

3 and their going away from us, a banishment. Yet they are in peace<br />

4 And though, in the sight of men, they suffered torments, their hope is<br />

full of immortality<br />

5 Troubled in few things, in many things they will be well compensated,<br />

because God has tested them and found them worthy of himself<br />

6 Like gold in the furnace, he has proved them, and as a holocaust victim,<br />

he has received them, and in the time of their visitatio<br />

7 they will shine, and they will dash about like sparks among stubble<br />

8 They will judge the nations and they will rule over the people, and their<br />

Lord will reign forever<br />

9 Those who trust in him, will understand the truth, and those who are<br />

faithful in love will rest in him, because grace and peace is for his elect<br />

MEDITATION<br />

IT IS WELL WITH MY SOUL.<br />

When peace, like a river attendethmy way<br />

When sorrows like sea billows roll;<br />

Whatever my lot, thou hast taught me to say<br />

It is well; it is well with my soul.<br />

It is well, it is well with my soul<br />

With my soul. It is well; it is well with my soul.<br />

It is well, it is well with my soul<br />

With my soul. It is well; it is well with my soul.<br />

Though satan should buffet, the trials<br />

should come, Let this blest assurance control<br />

That Christ has regarded my<br />

helplessness state And hath shed<br />

his own blood for my soul.<br />

My sin oh, the bliss of this glorious thought,<br />

My sin not in part, but the whole<br />

Is nailed on the cross and I bear it no more,<br />

Praises the lord, praises the lord o my soul!<br />

It is well, it is well with my soul<br />

With my soul. It is well; it is well with my soul.<br />

It is well, it is well with my soul<br />

With my soul. It is well; it is well with my soul.<br />

And Lord haste the day when the faith shall be sight<br />

The cloud be rolled back as a scroll,<br />

The trump shall resound and the<br />

Lord shall descend, Even so it is<br />

well with my soul.<br />

COMMUNION<br />

COME AND DINE<br />

Jesus has a table spread<br />

Where the saints of God are fed,<br />

He invites His chosen people,<br />

“Come and dine”;<br />

With His manna He doth feed<br />

And supplies our every need:<br />

Oh, ’tis sweet to sup with Jesus all the time!<br />

Refrain:<br />

“Come and dine,” the Master calleth, “Come and dine”;<br />

You may feast at Jesus’ table all the time;<br />

He Who fed the multitude, turned the water into wine,<br />

To the hungry calleth now, “Come and dine.”<br />

The disciples came to land,<br />

Thus obeying Christ’s command,<br />

For the Master called unto them,<br />

“Come and dine”;<br />

There they found their heart’s desire,<br />

Bread and fish upon the fire;<br />

Thus He satisfies the hungry every time.<br />

Refrain:<br />

“Come and dine,” the Master calleth, “Come and dine”;<br />

You may feast at Jesus’ table all the time;<br />

He Who fed the multitude, turned the water into wine,<br />

To the hungry calleth now, “Come and dine.”<br />

Soon the Lamb will take His bride<br />

To be ever at His side,<br />

All the host of heaven will assembled be;<br />

Oh, ’twill be a glorious sight,<br />

All the saints in spotless white;<br />

And with Jesus they will feast eternally.<br />

The late night chats at your house, 2:00am was our bed time whenever I slept over, the early<br />

morning calls every day of my life, the previous meals prepared special in the shortest time<br />

possible for me, the simple dinners that you always appreciated even when I thought they<br />

were nothing, the love, kindness and care, ensuring that I always had all everything going for<br />

me in order. Even in the midst of the toughest time’s, you always assured me that everything<br />

was going to be fine and that you were praying for me and it always went well.<br />

I lost my best friend, a selfless soul. I will always remember the special time’s we shared<br />

together and hold on to that, I miss your presence, God called you so early but I now know<br />

that I have a guardian Angel watching over me.<br />

always took your time to find out what I wanted and always made sure I got exactly that when<br />

I visited you. Iam fortunate to have met an angel like you , cause then I experienced love only<br />

few can witness they have come across. Somewhere in my heart beneath all the pain and grief<br />

is a smile I still wear at the thought of you. No amount of words can express how deeply you<br />

made an impact on me with your love and joy. Rest well beloved mother. Briannah<br />

We lost a best friend, a love so hard to replace. Jajja May your Soul continue to Rest In Peace.<br />

Your spirit will always live within us.<br />

glad I learnt so much from you, thank you for loving me so much, will forever<br />

be grateful mum, I miss you everyday<br />

Gloria (Daughter in-law)<br />

The God sent Mum in the world.<br />

You were a precious gift from God, So much beauty, grace, love and patience you possessed.<br />

You touched my heart in so many ways, your strength and smile even on dark days made me<br />

realize I had an angel beside me. I will forever salute you, You were all I ever needed.<br />

God gave me the best mother-in-law in the world.<br />

Kapo (Son in-law)<br />

In loving memory of a dear sister how can l find the words to tell you of how l miss you and<br />

with for life time till we meet in heaven and rest in peace my loved sister l will always miss<br />

Brenda (Sister)<br />

To others she was an Iron Lady, strong willed, and devoted.<br />

To others, she was a devout Catholic, a Lover of God and a Lover of Justice.<br />

To others she was a politician, a born Leader, a promoter of Justice and Development.<br />

A born Political Scientist. To me she was a Natural Mother to us, A joyful party-starter, a<br />

Team Builder and a most valuable Sister. God is also enjoying her company.<br />

May Nalongo rest in eternal peace. Yours Brother<br />

"UNTIL WE MEET AGAIN"<br />

Those Special Memories will always bring a smile, if only I would have you back for just a little while.<br />

Then we could sit and talk again. Oh my beloved sister, that now is not with me again, let me recall those<br />

old days in Mbarara at home. An intelligent and humble daughter in the family, with passion to study,<br />

starting from the primary school to that strong well known Nyakasura School in Fort-portal, Western<br />

Uganda and even beyond. At home we sat together and indeed you took care of me, as your young sibling.<br />

The fact that you are no longer here, will always cause me pain. The fact that I never said goodbye to you<br />

due to circumstances beyond my control makes me think you are there. Indeed I know you are there in that<br />

peaceful heaven and one time I will join you there. Definitely the care you gave me, the advice, the comfort<br />

and the support in one way or the other still counts in my heart.<br />

Oh my Lord, I know you are no longer there, but my Heart is still with you. A gallant daughter to our<br />

family, a mother and indeed a strong one who fought day and night for the upbringing and success of your<br />

children, who qualify as witnesses to this, will never make us forget you and makes you a great mother of<br />

all the time on earth. Remember you never said to me; I am leaving not even goodbye. You were gone<br />

before I knew it and only God knows why. My mind still talks to you. My heart still looks for you.<br />

Josephine as the ‘’Nalongo’’, the young and the elders knew, my beloved sister, that my children called<br />

Auntie, that my wife praised and respected, I still miss you so much and will do for ever. Your parents who<br />

joined heaven before, I think now they can see you and recall the love they had for you.<br />

God has you in his arms. I have you in my heart. Yours Brother<br />

(Sister)<br />

Mama, death has made me realize that I truly never knew the meaning of the words ' I Miss<br />

You' until I reached for your hand and it's no where to be found. Omulungi wange I now<br />

know why you would ask me to always be a strong woman cause you knew that a day like this<br />

would come where I need nothing but strength to bear such a big loss. Mama you taught me<br />

everything except one of not living without you, Miss your love, care, guidance and being<br />

around you. Here wishing God can do me a miracle and introduce heaven visiting hours so<br />

that I can get a chance of seeing and talking to you again.<br />

Rest Peaceful with the Angels Mama.....<br />

Mumy always lit up the room & any place when she entered it.<br />

Mumy was a gift to the world & her compassion was felt by everyone who knew her.<br />

Mumy had the most incredible ability to connect with anyone who crossed her path.<br />

Her beautiful presence will forever be missed by my brothers & sisters, in-laws, relatives,<br />

friends and most so her very many beautiful & handsome grand children.<br />

Mummy I will forever miss you. You were so warm hearted. You welcomed me to your<br />

home and as a mum u made me feel more than comfortable. You were so kind not just to<br />

me but to everyone around you. I could come home and we talk about anything. You left us<br />

so soon and I’ll cherish those moments I had with you forever. I know you are in heaven<br />

with God’s angels<br />

A person that departs on this earth never truly leaves, for<br />

they are still alive in our hearts and minds - through us they live on. You were the best Mum &<br />

grandparent anyone could have asked for. Thank you for everything you ever did, you will forever<br />

remain in our thoughts and hearts.<br />

Tumushabe Sharon<br />

Dear Mama, I am forever grateful to the Almighty for the memories and interactions we had.<br />

I am certain that your legacy will forever live on and remembered by those that loved,<br />

cherished and admired your grace. I, am especially grateful for the blessing of love you<br />

bestowed upon those that you gifted to this world and for generations to come.<br />

For its through them, we get to receive the gift of family, love, joy and hope.<br />

May your soul continue to *REST IN PEACE* !<br />

Nkwanzi<br />

Mom Nalomgo was the strongest lady I ever met both in character and at heart. I doubt<br />

there enough words that can describe her unique personality but to me. She was a friend<br />

that brought light and laughter . I wish I had the chance to tell her how much of an<br />

inspiration she was to me before her passing. I pray that she has a new found peace in the<br />

afterlife as her memory lives on through all that loved her.<br />

Murungi Lauretah<br />

Honestly I have failed to come up with a msg cause they're no words which can Express<br />

my loss or the way I feel after losing my best friend my mentor my mum and my one and<br />

only wife if heaven was a lane I would have walked straight and bring back that Bright<br />

light and get rid of the darkness you left.i know the Angels wouldn't have permitted me<br />

cause they also welcomed you as an Angel. RIP sweet heart.<br />
