Overcome evil with good
Join us in prayer for Goma and DRC: 5 to 11 May 2025
Violence in Goma has left communities shattered and in fear. Our partners are responding with courage and faith – but they need our support as many challenges remain.
That’s why we are holding a week of prayer for DRC, calling on Christians to lift up our brothers and sisters before God and pray for peace.
Sign up today to join our online prayer gathering at 12pm on Thursday 8 May. Signing up means you’ll also get all the latest information on the prayer week as it becomes available.
Follow us on Instagram and Facebook to join in morning and evening prayers throughout the week.
Yes, I’m joining in the week of prayer for DRC and the prayer gathering on 8 May.
“I pray because I can’t help myself. I pray because I’m helpless. I pray because the need flows out of me all the time, waking and sleeping. It doesn’t change God. It changes me.” – CS Lewis
