World Relief 2

“Many people are suffering, and they do not have anyone to care for them…But, there is still hope.
And that hope is the church.” – Marcel Serubungo

This season, we celebrate what God is doing through His Church. This season we celebrate Peace – personified in Jesus Christ.

Join us to support and encourage the Congolese Church as they bring reconciliation and healing to their neighbors, communities, and country.

First, please PRAY for the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC):

  • Pray for Peace and Security in the North Kivu and the DRC in general.
  • Pray for the expansion of World Relief’s Peace-Building Program in the whole eastern part of the DRC.
  • Pray for the victims of war who are most vulnerable.
  • Pray for the Local Church in the DRC and Village Peace Committees to have the capacity to respond to the needs of the most vulnerable.

Second, please take a Thanksgiving or Christmas offering for our work in the DRC.

You can find a video, a bulletin insert, and background information on the situation in the DRC and World Relief’s work there online at www.worldrelief.org/holiday-campaign.

Thank you for standing for the vulnerable. Together, we can make a difference!
Gratefully,

Don Golden
