From CI/UCBC's Founder

Dear friends of Congo Initiative, We greet you from Beni, in the Democratic Republic of Congo(DRC). We pray that you and your family have had a MerryChristmas and will have a blessed New Year. Some people refer to the DRC as the world capital of rape; others as a hopeless country, and so on... But for us who live here and work for its restoration, this is a land of great promise as holistic ministries like Congo Initiative (CI) and the Université Chrétienne Bilingue du Congo (UCBC) are persevering in spreading hope.  We are doing this through an innovative and transformational university, professional development, women's empowerment, community outreach, and more.   We are so grateful to all of you who have generously supported CI-UCBC this past year. God has used you to advance our mission, giving hope to the people of Congo.   Now we invite each of you to join us in believing the words of God to Moses, "Now you will see what I will do..." (Exodus 6:1).  If you have not yet done so, would you please consider giving CI-UCBC an end-of-year gift?  Our undivided commitment to our mission and to prayer, coupled with your generous gifts, will have a life-giving impact on this nation. You can send a check to the address below or make your donation online through our secure website.  We thank you, and we thank God for you.  And once again, have a wonderful New Year! Yours, David M.
