Tshimika, Funga and Wiebe feast at MMHH in Kinshasa after the curriculum launch celebration.
Long-anticipated project dedicated
In March 2016, the MB church in DR Congo released a K–12 curriculum on Christian ethics from an Anabaptist perspective, launched with dedication events in Kinshasa and Kikwit.
Pakisa Tshimika of Mama Makeka House of Hope oversaw the project on behalf of ICOMB.
Heritier Funga, MMHH coordinator in Kinshasa, set up the meetings. Mwaku Florent (Kinshasa) and Delphin Kaputu (Kikwit) chaired the committee in charge of writing the material.
Mwaku and Tshimika (seated) present the curriculum with a local television reporter.
ICOMB executive director David Wiebe was present at the celebrations, where a copy was “baptized” and prayed over in dedication.
