Faith, Language, and Print in One Workflow
Centenary Publishing House was established during Church centenary celebrations in 1977 and has since become a core channel for liturgical continuity across Uganda's linguistic communities.
Its strength is not only content production, but language adaptation, editorial stewardship, and practical distribution support for dioceses, schools, and ministry teams.
