Hinn, who is in Uganda for a three-day crusade, was invited by Senior Pastor Robert Kayanja and his wife Jessica to lead the mega crusade at Rubaga Miracle Centre Cathedral.
The event has already attracted tens of thousands of worshippers, with people travelling from across Uganda and neighbouring countries to attend.
Unforeseen Extension and Ministry Plans
Addressing the tens of thousands gathered at Rubaga Miracle Centre for Day 2 of his crusade, Pastor Benny Hinn made an unexpected proclamation regarding his itinerary.
He said he had decided to extend his stay in the country for another day after a mishap with his flight schedule.
"I understand from Pastor Robert Kayanja that tomorrow we were going to have a pastors meeting but now the plans have changed, we are going to have another meeting like tonight," Hinn announced.
"On Monday, it happened that I couldn't get a flight out here; I can only fly out on Tuesday. So I said to Pastor Robert, I will have a free day on Monday and I don't like doing nothing. So on Monday we will have the pastor’s meeting.”
