Charles Lwanga
Charles Lwanga (Luganda: Karoli Lwanga; 1860〔(Charles Lwanga's profile from UgandaMartyrsShrine.org ) Retrieved on 2008-08-17.〕〔(Charles Lwanga's profile from Dictionary of African Christian Biography ). Retrieved on 2008-08-29.〕 or 1865 – June 3, 1886) was a Ugandan convert to the Catholic Church, who was martyred for his faith and is revered as a saint by both the Catholic Church and the Anglican Communion. ==Life== Charles was born in the Kingdom of Buganda, the southern part of modern Uganda, and served as a page and later major-domo in the court of King Mwanga II. As part of the king's effort to resist foreign colonization, the king insisted that Christian converts abandon their new faith, and executed many Anglicans and Catholics between 1885 and 1887, many of whom were officials in the royal court or otherwise very close to him, including Lwanga.
