M23 rebels have taken control of a stretch roughly the distance between Sydney and Port Macquarie. These local Christians are helping displaced people find shelter in church buildings or with other Christian families – nearly 5,000 people. They asked us to help.
Together, we’re providing:
- Corn flour, rice, beans, and cooking oil
- Clothes
- Sanitary items
- Medicine
to people most in need in Goma and Bukavu.
Our brothers and sisters on the ground are caring for the spiritual and emotional needs of those affected too. With help from Anglican Aid, they’re setting up trauma counselling workshops, and offering God’s comfort through prayer.
In the case that a fundraising appeal has received sufficient donations, any surplus funds will be used for a similar activity or an activity in the same country.
