The independence of the Democratic Republic of Congo was is well negoviate? Was it the right time? Were then leaders well prepared to take over responsibilities to which they were not well equipped or was it just the oppressors' ruse to make sure that they continued ruling even after they've departed?
All those questions that may occupy our minds when we are "celebrating" the 65th anniversary of Congo's independence.
What ia the role of the church today that can help change the situation that has become desperate for congolese?

30 new CBCA pastors ordained in Goma

This Sunday, July 21st, 2024, the Baptist community in the central of Africa (CBCA) experienced an important moment with the ordination of it's 30 new pastors.

This ceremony, which took place in the Virunga parish, Ecclesiastical District of Goma, was a true testimony to the power of faith and the strength of the CBCA Christian community.

Candidates from different CBCA positions, such as Kalungu (4), Bukavu (2), Goma (9), Uvira (5), Buturande (5), Muku (1), Kampala (1) maniema (1) and Kinshasa (1), our one and only Rev Dan Tshibangu Manyiku, were called to serve God and his people. The atmosphere was palpable from the morning, with a huge crowd gathered in the parish grounds.

The ceremony began at 10 a.m. with a Bible reading and prayer, followed by a hymn “Tuma Nuru” led by Rev. David Ithero.

The highlights were the sanctification, led by Rev. Pastor Bertin Mutarushwa, and praise, during which the choirs of the parishes of Goma expressed their joy and support for the new pastors.

The arrival of the candidates, dressed in black jackets symbolizing the death of Jesus and accompanied by their wives in loincloths, was a poignant moment.

The preaching time was marked by the inspiring words of the President and Legal Representative of the CBCA, Rev. Dr. Prof Jonathan Kivatsi, who was inspired by the biblical passages of 1Samuel 3:1-10, John 10:7-11 and 1Corinthians 3:11-19. He focused his message on the theme “Kuzingatiya uduma takatifu (Wanting a holy ministry)” emphasizing the responsibility of pastors and the importance of humility and service.

The ordination itself was a solemn moment. The candidates made their declaration of faith before the community, promising to serve God and the people of the CBCA with dedication.

This ordination was marked by songs and prayers, as well as the presentation of the Bible, a symbol of the pastors' commitment to the word of God.

The ceremony ended with a moment of sharing and joy, with songs, applause and photos shooting. The wives of the new pastors also received prayers to accompany them in their mission.

The ordination of these 30 new pastors is a significant event for the CBCA. It is a sign of the growth and vitality of the Baptist community in central Africa. May God bless them in their ministry and help them lead their people toward the light of the Gospel.

MESSAGE FROM THE PRESIDENT AND LEGAL REPRESENTATIVE TO THE MEMBERS OF THE BCCA (CBCA) IN THESE DIFFICULT TIMES IN THE EAST OF THE DRC [document]

Dear CBCA members,

Grace be to you and peace from God the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit. Beloved in the Lord, the insecurity in Eastern Congo has caused many deaths, trials and suffering for all of us, especially for our church, CBCA. There are many war displaced people in Goma Diocese and many churches in Kalungu Diocese have completely closed. The Buturande Diocese has suffered since the start of this war. The Diocese of Bambu lives in very poor conditions. The security situation at Bwatsinge Diocese has also deteriorated. The Dioceses of Kitsombiro and Kitsimba are now living in great anxiety. The lack of security in the Mambowa, Maboya and Vuyinga Dioceses pushed many of our members to flee for their lives. The massacres in Beni and Bunia Dioceses destroyed the lives of many people. There are many displaced people in our churches at Katwa Diocese in Butembo. Other positions are experiencing difficulties linked to the situation in our country.

So my brothers and sisters, this should inspire us to draw near to God and seek his face to pray for the safety of our country. Pray for the leaders of our country and also for the leaders of our church at all levels. As Habakkuk 2:1 says, let us be on guard to wait for what God will tell us. The Bible tells us to discern every spirit to see if it comes from God (1 John 4:1). In these troubled times, social networks are full of information of all kinds; let us discern them before spreading them to others.

My dear friends, in its history, our Church has experienced many painful periods but God has always pulled us out of them. Like the apostle Paul, we are pressed on every side, but we do not despair, we are persecuted but we endure in faith, and if we are insulted, we must respond with meekness (2Cor 4:8-13). Above all, hold fast to the holy vocation you have received from the Lord. It is God who has called you to ministry in this troubled time: trust Him in times of trouble.

My dear brothers and sisters, in this difficult time, let us watch over each other and encourage ourselves to charity and good works. Let us show love to each other, especially to those in need. Provide shelter for the homeless and displaced; as much as you can, give food to those who are hungry; let us visit widows and orphans in their difficulties; let us clothe those who have no clothes and comfort our fellow men in their afflictions (Isaiah 40:1).

And the Peace of the God who surpasses all understanding will guard your hearts and your minds in Jesus Christ, the Prince of Peace.
