In the 1996, Pastor Moses Nkwatsibwe, 24, had a passion for Christ and ministering to inmates who believed that there was no hope for the future, so he planted Kiburara Gospel Centre Church which began in Kiburara Prison Farm Hall. The church began with two families and a congregation of two people.
As time went on, these two families received the vision of reaching out to the community with the message of hope,
which led to many souls turning to Christ. Through their efforts, the church grew and Stephen Bitungwa and Christopher Ayebare were saved. Both men became pastors, and currently they are the pastoring in branch churches that have been planted by Kiburara Gospel Centre Church. Pastor Stephen Bitungwa leads Rwenyawawa gospel Center and Pastor Christopher Ayebare leads Kakinga Gospel Centre respectively.
Pastor Stephen was an associate pastor in Kiburara Gospel Centre before he was sent out to a branch church and Pastor Christopher was a Bible Sunday school teacher in the mother church before he was sent to a branch church. Currently the church has grown to 300 members and 3 local churches in the neighborhood.Kiburara Gospel Centre Church continues to be a growing, culturally diverse church with evangelistic passion, love for the local community, and commitment to planting other churches.
Our church is building a permanent worship center that will seat 800 members. This will be a meeting place for the three local churches in the neighborhood communities and all those who wish to come. We have poured the first beam before roofing; we need people who can invest in this project knowing that it is an eternal investment.
Our three daughter churches were planted, Kakinga gospel Center August 2007 , Rwenyawawa Gospel Centre Church May 2008 and Ncwano C Gospel Centre May 2009. These three churches began in rented places but in 2009, they all acquired their own plots; they are now building temporary shelter except Ncwano C which has been planted recently.
