UCE-Burundi has successfully organised a UCE special day on 19th June 2010 in Makamba urban Center. The main objective was to sensitize people to awareness of HIV/AIDS through an open air marching in the streets of Makamba and a musical concert in the Anglican Cathedral.

Different choirs from all the parishes gathered at the Cathedral ground in their coloured choir uniforms early in the morning, supported by the Agasimbo Traditional and acrobatic dancers. The UCE team was dynamic as usual surrounding the UCE National Director. 

The parade was entertained by different songs, being Christians, gospels or traditional. Thousands of people in the city joined the marching willingly, listening to the message which was sounding throughout the city of Makamba. People have never witnessed such an event. Amazingly, one of the viewers exclaimed and said: ''Well done dear Bishop. People need such message in order to change their behaviour''.

The most exciting moment was the Christian musical concert to which over 800 youths have participated. In their songs, they reminded the listeners how HIV/AIDS is being spread in the families, schools, prisons because of careless people. They advised the  assembly that abstinence and faithfulness in marriage remain the best weapons to fight the spread of this killing disease.

In his message, the UCE National Director has used the opportunity to disclose that there is hope for a bright future mainly through the acceptance of Jesus Christ as a personal Saviour to each and everyone. He emphasised on Biblical truth that Jesus Christ still cares though the devil keeps destroying lives of people who neglect the true teaching of the Universal Chastity Education.

At the conclusion, all the choirs were given a prize to thank them for the successful marching and singing. A meal was shared because we avoided that these youths might not starve on their way back. The National Television responded to the rendez-vous and the event was broadcasted on TV the following day. We assume that over 1 million have watched the UCE event on their screen. Oh! What a UCE special day in Makamba!
