Meet Rev. Peter & Irene Kasirivu

Rev. Peter Kasirivu is the Senior Pastor of Ggaba Community Church, Founder & President of Africa Renewal Ministries Uganda, and Chancellor of Africa Renewal University. He serves as Vice-Chairman of the Evangelical Fellowship of Uganda (EFU) — an umbrella fellowship of over 12,000 churches — and General Overseer of the Fellowship of Community Churches (FCC), with over 1,200 churches across Uganda.

In 1990, Rev. Peter founded Africa Renewal Ministries through Ggaba Community Church in response to overwhelming community needs. From those humble beginnings, the ministry has grown to seven affiliated ministries impacting more than 30 communities across Uganda.

Together, Rev. Peter and Irene Kasirivu have led the planting of over 1,200 churches, trained more than 2,700 leaders, and sponsored 15,000+ children. God has blessed them with four children: James, Lydia, Joy Ruth, and Isaac Joshua.
