Patrick Kibirige
Director of Our Father Primary School
Director of Good Shepherd Foundation - Uganda
He is 29 years old and is the Director and Founder of Good Shepherd Foundation of Uganda, and the Our Father Primary School of Kagavu, Uganda. He is an incredible man of God, beginning this school under a tree with about 30 children and orphans, and in just a few years, has grown the school to around 300 children and orphans. Patrick loves to live his life serving God’s people, as is evident by his life of constant sacrifice, leaving his family for many days at a time when he was starting the school. He believes that every child deserves a great education, and above all, they learn that the most important thing in life is to follow Jesus Christ. Patrick’s favorite verse that assures him that God is with him is Psalm 23.

Mary Gorret
Nurse and Director of Medical Clinic
She is a 32 year old nurse and Director of the Kagavu Medical Clinic. She is Patrick Kibirige’s older sister, and one of the key members of the Good Shepherd Foundation Uganda team. Mary attended nursing school in Kampala, and is currently studying to attain an even higher degree in the nursing field. Last year she left her full time job at the hospital in Kampala to come and be the director of the medical clinic in Kagavu. She has a four year old son named David, which she loves with all of her heart. She is the epitome of a servant of the Lord, and continuously sacrifices for the health and wellness of others. She is a helping hand to the hurting and a voice to the voiceless. She states: “I love taking care of the sick, giving them comfort and providing the necessary treatment. I am grateful to God for the mission that He sent me to do on earth whereby I am able to serve those who are sick and in need of help.” Mary is relentless in her pursuit of helping others, and will not stop until she knows that everyone around her is taken care of. She knows that the Lord has sent her to be a strong tower in the midst of trouble which is why she clings to Psalm 121:1-2: “I lift my eyes to the mountains - where does my help come from? My help comes from the Lord the Maker of heaven and earth.”

Stephen Kasule
Adminstrator
He is 34 years old and is an administrator at the Our Father Primary School in Kagavu, Uganda. He also serves as an administrator for Good Shepherd Foundation Uganda. After working in Kampala, Stephen moved to the village after hearing and seeing what God was doing in Kagavu. He is married and they have a son.
His favorite verse shows that God is merciful and loves us so much, which is Matthew 18:11-14, saying: "For the Son of Man has come to save that which was lost. What do you think? If a man has a hundred sheep, and one of them goes astray, does he not leave the ninety-nine and go to the mountains to seek the one that is straying? And if he should find it, assuredly, I say to you, he rejoices more over that sheep than over the ninety-nine that did not go astray. Even so it is not the will of your Father who is in heaven that one of these little ones should perish."

Reginah Kiiza
Teacher and Boarding Parent
She is an incredible 26 year old woman. She works in Kagavu at the Our Father Primary School as a teacher and as a senior woman, taking care of the young women that are boarding students. She is a not only a mother of her 6 year old daughter Martha, but also serves as a mother to many young women who do not have a mother in their lives.
Reginah loves teaching and also loves to farm. As if her schedule was not busy enough, she also loves to help out anyone that is in need. She truly has a servant's heart, filled with the love of Jesus, serving everyone regardless of gender, tribe or religion. Reginah is an amazing woman who inspires everyone to be greater.
Her favorite scripture is Psalms 1, which says:
"Blessed is the man who walks not in the counsel of the wicked, nor stands in the path of sinners, nor sits in the seat of scoffers; His delight is in the law of the Lord, and on His law he meditates day and night. He shall be like a tree planted by the rivers of water, that brings forth fruit in its season, whose leaf shall not wither, but whatever he does prospers. The ungodly are not so, but are like the chaff which the wind blows away. Therefore, they will not stand in the judgement, nor sinners in the congregation of the righteous. For the Lord knows the ways of the righteous, but the ways of the wicked shall perish."

Tumuhimbise Moses
Assistant Principal
He is 32 years old and currently holds the position of assistant principal at Our Father Primary School. He is a kind and caring man that loves his position at the school because he is able to help many young children. Whenever Moses has the chance, he absolutely loves listening to gospel music and his favorite verse is about the power of God. He loves Isaiah 22:22, which says:
I will place on his shoulder the key to the house of David; what he opens no one can shut, and what he shuts no one can open.
