PCJ stands for Philosophy Centre Jinja

The Queen of Apostles Philosophy Centre (PCJ) responds to the challenges of Evangelization in general, training its students to face the modern world that tends to distance itself from its cultural and Christian heritage. Philosophical, religious and social disciplines undertaken by students from various formation houses of Missionary and Religious congregations are meant to equip future missionaries and religious men and women with values and knowledge necessary for initial and continuous pastoral work in Africa and in the world at large.
