Help Close the Gap for the DRC

In the heart of Africa, the Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC) is one of the most spiritually open nations we serve—a place where young hearts are eager for truth, hope, and the Gospel.

But despite this openness, the DRC experiences horrific tragedies: ISIS-affiliated extremists massacred 40 Christians during an overnight prayer vigil—many of them children. As violence and persecution rise, the Church is crying out for help, hope, and healing. 

A Congolese pastor recently pleaded,
 “[My home] is becoming an ocean of tears . . . every day, innocent people are killed.”

Yet in the midst of the suffering, the Church in the DRC is standing strong. There is a wide-open door to reach the next generation—but it requires our partnership.

The Opportunity

At our recent OneHope reception during the GrowLeader Conference, we shared our vision to get God’s Word to Every Child. Now, we want to invite you to respond in a tangible way—by helping us complete this mission in the DRC.

As we enter the final stretch of 2025, there’s a $158,525 funding gap standing in the way of reaching thousands of children and youth with Scripture in the DRC.

If every church we connected with during GrowLeader gave $5,000, we could close the gap completely.
Your gift will equip local churches in the DRC to share God’s Word with the next generation—bringing spiritual transformation where it’s needed most. 
Let’s stand with the Church in the Congo.
Let’s close the gap, finish strong, and reach the next generation with the life-changing power of God’s Word.
