Inauguration of Beni Diocese
Sunday 12th May was a historic day in the life of the Anglican Church of Congo when its 13th diocese, the Diocese of Beni was inaugurated and its first bishop, Bishop Kambale Tavuyirima Cyrille was consecrated and enthroned. Beni Diocese comprises 4 Archdeaconries, and was formed out of the northern part of North Kivu Diocese. We send out congratulations and prayers for God’s blessing on Beni Diocese under the leadership of Bp Kambale.

Celebrations in Katanga Diocese
In August 2018 Katanga Diocese celebrated 30 years of youth ministry in the diocese – Girls’ and Boys’ Brigade, Jeunesse Chrétienne en Mission/Agape, and Sunday Schools. Celebrations spanned several weeks with international visitors from Zambia and UK participating in various conferences. Praise God for His work in the lives of so many young people!

A Prayer for the Democratic Republic of Congo
O God, loving parent of all, comfort your children displaced, wounded or orphaned by conflict in Congo; and give the people of that country courage to seek enduring peace with justice and freedom, that their children might grow up without fear; for the sake of your Son, Jesus Christ. Amen.
Adapted by Canon Ian Tarrant from a prayer in the 1998 Congo Swahili Prayer Book, written after the 1996-97 war.
