Buremba C.O. U started as early as 1928 with Late Amos Busaasi as the first catechist. In 1975, Buremba C.O.U was elevated to parish status following the gradual development of Anglicanism. It is recorded that Mzee Rubarenzya Christopher played a big role in the process of attaining Parish status and Rev. Amos Turugurwa was appointed the first parish priest. In the year 2009, Buremba parish was elevated to an Archdeaconry status and Late Rev. Patrick Katonera was chosen and appointed the first Archdeacon. Currently, Vev. Rev. Kurumwine John serves as the 5th archdeacon of Buremba Archdeaconry.
