The Bishop recognized the territory and started appointing priests. Fr. Cyril was succeeded by Fr. Nkijanabwo Godfrey in 1999, who served for five years. He was replaced by Fr. Mbagira George William, who served for less than a year, and then Fr. Kyomuhendo Cyprian, who served for five years. Fr. Godfrey Nkijanabwo returned to continue his mission, serving with Fr. Robert Tubayungwa as his curate. The political environment during the 2016 elections led to Fr. Godfrey being accused of conspiracy and transferred. He was succeeded by Fr. James Nyendera in 2016, who served until December 2019. Fr. MUKASA Amen Joseph is the current Parish priest, serving with Fr. Paul Agaba since 2021 and Fr. Levius Muhwezi since August 2022.
