Congo

A Growing National Church in the Midst of Severe Poverty

God is at work in Congo. In partnership with the Evangelical Free Church of Congo (CECU), ReachGlobal is working in the areas of leadership development and ministries of compassion.

Over the years God has brought about a huge harvest as hundreds of thousands have accepted the Lord.  With 971 churches and a membership of 150,000, the CECU is a vibrant growing and missionary-sending church.  But war, AIDS, and other social disruption have filled the church with widows, orphans, unwed mothers and handicapped people.  And in the whole Ubangi, the size of Indiana, the CECU hospital at Tandala is one of only two functional hospitals.  So the CECU is at the forefront of holistic ministry meeting the needs of the people in the churches and villages of the Ubangi.
