Celebrating St. Padre Pio Day with a Community Health Camp

October 1, 2025By 0 comment

In honor of the Feast of our Patron Saint, St. Padre Pio, we held a two-day community health camp at Padre Pio Hospital–Butozi on the 22nd and 23rd of September 2025. Guided by our mission “Nos Curamus, Deus Sanat” – We care, God heals – this camp was not only a celebration of faith but also an act of service to our community.

Over the course of the two days, our dedicated medical team and volunteers attended to more than 250 patients from Kyotera, Masaka, and the surrounding communities. Services included general consultations, maternal and child health checkups, laboratory investigations, and specialized care for vulnerable groups such as women, children, and the elderly.

The health camp provided a vital opportunity to reach out to those who often face challenges in accessing quality healthcare. It also reaffirmed our commitment to making Padre Pio Hospital a beacon of hope and healing for all.

We are deeply grateful to our partners, volunteers, and friends who made this event possible. Their selfless support reflects the spirit of St. Padre Pio, whose life was marked by compassion, humility, and service to others.

As we continue to grow as a health facility, we remain steadfast in our mission to serve the community with love and excellence, following in the footsteps of our beloved Patron Saint.

August 29, 2023By 0 comment

On this momentous day, August 19th, 2023, we stand in awe and gratitude as the Padre Pio Hospital shines forth, a beacon of hope and compassion. This monumental achievement is a testament to the unwavering dedication of the Italian Episcopal Conference, whose generosity and commitment have birthed a sanctuary of healing in partnership with the Masaka Diocese.

Under the divine guidance of Rt. Rev. Serverus Jjumba, Bishop of Masaka Diocese, Padre Pio Hospital stands tall, ready to serve as a pillar of strength for our community. This accomplishment is an embodiment of the spirit of giving, a legacy that speaks volumes about your kindness and concern for the well-being of others.

The roots of this endeavour trace back to the Padre Pio Rural Development Initiative (PAPIRUDEI), a nurturing force within the Masaka Diocese. Through your steadfast support, PAPIRUDEI has transformed into a powerful force for positive change, nurturing the dreams of countless souls seeking a healthier future.

As we open the doors of Padre Pio Hospital, we are humbled by the incredible journey we have embarked upon together. Your dedication has sewn the seeds of health, healing, and happiness in the hearts of our community members. Your generosity resonates in every corner of this institution, reflecting a bond that transcends borders and unites us in purpose.

Today, as we celebrate the launch of Padre Pio Hospital, we celebrate you – the donors, the visionaries, and the heart behind this transformation. With deep gratitude, we extend our hands in friendship and unity, as we continue to walk this path of compassion and service together.

From the depths of our hearts, thank you for being the driving force that brings light to the lives of many. Your legacy will forever be etched in the walls of Padre Pio Hospital, reminding us that kindness knows no bounds.
