Saint Charles Lwanga and Companions
 St. Charles Lwanga and 21 Ugandan companions were among hundreds of Catholics and Anglicans killed in Uganda by King Mwangabetween 1885 and 1887. Many of the people persecuted by the king were relatives and friends. Charles and his 21 companions were put to death by the sword and fire because they would not violate their faith to follow the king. Before these faithful died they challenged the king on many of his immoral practices.

Pope Paul VI canonized St. Charles and his companions on October 18, 1964. Charles is the patron saint of African Catholic Youth Action.
