DR Congo: rebuilding schools

8 October 2026

In Goma, Ngangi Primary school is currently undergoing extensive work including the rebuilding of 12 new classrooms, an office and toilets. The 1,000 students have now returned to school and mission partner Martin Gordon asks for prayer for the school teachers as they start the school year in challenging conditions.

Please also pray for the 50 school chaplains – that they would have a clear vision for serving the schools and preaching the gospel. Finally, please pray for continued funds to rebuild and rehabilitate the schools in the Diocese of Goma.
