DR Congo: schools in the Diocese of Goma

30 October 2025

Mission partner Martin Gordon asks for prayer for schools across the (vast) Diocese of Goma. Education is a core part of the diocese’s ministry, and the diocese runs over 100 schools with more than 25,000 students. Give thanks that the diocese has been able to rebuild several schools that had been hit by bombs or otherwise damaged due to the ongoing conflict. Pray for continued improvements to the education system in the diocese and for the diocese’s provision of education to be a witness to God’s unconditional love.
