Pastor John Michael Mugerwa and his wife, Evah, received a vision from God to take care of orphaned children during the time when AIDS was sweeping across their nation of Uganda. They began taking orphaned children one by one into their tiny home, ending up with 13 in all.
Then in 2000, the Lord gave them 22 acres of land and they started making their own bricks on site so construction could begin. They had enough donations to construct two buildings: one for classrooms, and the other for a dormitory. In January 2003, their dream became a reality when they opened Destiny Orphanage and Boarding School. Currently, they have over 550 children in their care and have over 40 staff members.
