A new Talk To Action story identifies Apostle and bishop Julius Oyet as a major player in the recent effort in the Ugandan parliament to pass a draconian anti-gay bill. In this video [transcript posted below video] Ugandan Apostle Julius Oyet describes the recently launched 'College of Prayer,' which has played a significant role in organizing and rallying the Ugandan parliamentary MP's who have promoted the bill.
"Hello, I'm Apostle Julius Peter Oyet, I'm the President of College of Prayer in Uganda. I like College of Prayer because College of Prayer has been able to make us meet the needs of our nation. That Transformation is happening in Uganda right from the Parliament.
We launched College of Prayer in the Parliament of Uganda and we have a great team of the Uganda Government being part of the College of Prayer. We have four campuses of College of Prayer in the Parliament, in Kampala City with the VIP Pastors, in Aruah, in Gulu.
Why I like the College of Prayer - because it mentors leaders to, to, to revive the Body of Christ together. Now, another thing about College of Prayer is in the unity in diversity. Irrespective of our denominations and all our backgrounds, special prayer breaks through all these barriers and brings us together. College of Prayer has been able to bring the prayer life of our nation of the people of God very, very highly.
My vision for the College of Prayer is that we will have College of Prayer penetrate through the entire nation of Uganda. I've just returned from Rwanda and Burundi where I was talking to the members of parliament in Burundi and Rwanda and the VIP Pastors in ( ) Rwanda so that the next year we take College of Prayer into Rwanda and Burundi and, of course, into Tanzania and into Kenya where already people have been attending the College of Prayer.
College of Prayer is a place where, when we come together, we work together - that is great success. And, I want to thank you as pastors, as leaders in the marketplace. College of Prayer, that's not only mental leaders in the revived church but, also, it invites people from outside the church walls - the marketplace leaders. And that's why to this field we have come, we're with two members of Parliament. So we invite every leader, whether in the marketplace or in the pulpit - come with us, together, into College of Prayer.
To come together is the beginning. To work together is progress. But to serve together is success.
