The Congo Project is a strategic initiative to bring Bible school training into DR Congo’s remote, war-torn interior.

Training Leaders
Since 2005, we have established ministry training centers throughout the country’s vast interior, where we are currently providing training for more than 500 national church leaders. Since 2009, more than 1,000 have graduated!
Building Bible Schools
To accommodate the tremendous growth of this program, we are now building Bible school campuses in six strategic cities across the country—to provide each province with desperately needed infrastructure for ongoing training efforts.
Reaching the Heart of Africa
These Bible schools and the leaders they enable us to equip will impact the lives of thousands upon thousands across this nation as they reach the unreached, plant new churches, and minister to the desperate needs of their people.
A Strategic Response
For more than 25 years, the Democratic Republic of Congo has been ripped apart by unrelenting waves of armed conflict, the worst of which lasted five years (1998-2003) and claimed the lives of an estimated 5.4 million. Often referred to as the African World War, it was the deadliest conflict in the world since World War II. These years of war, corruption, and political instability have devastated this nation of more than 100 million, now considered one of the least developed countries in the world. Because of its massive size and almost complete lack of infrastructure, many of DR Congo’s interior provinces have been isolated from the help they so desperately need.
“With this training we are equipped like never before to take the gospel to the furthest reaching corners of our province.” -Pastor Raymond Banampona

Projects
Since 2009 we’ve been working together with the national church in DR Congo and our partners in the States to help build Bible school campuses in provinces where training facilities are desperately needed. We are now in the second phase of construction in six locations.
