About Rise Congo
ACADEMY
Our Academy opened in 2008. We minister to 1,300 children and high-schoolers on a weekly basis. We have. Over the years hundreds of children and teens have come to know Christ as their Savior. We continue to raise spiritual leaders, watching them grow into young adults serving the Lord. Lives changed is what it's all about.
COLLEGES
Over the years we've had three little Bible Colleges
that have struggled. It has been very difficult to
relocate an entire family to a new location for study.
They have to plant gardens, find work, and uproot
their children.
In 2019, we restructured our Bible Colleges to be both at permanent locations and at our satellite locations. We now have four Bible colleges located in six regions ministering to 27 churches.
At our satellite colleges, we regularly send two college teachers to teach block classes.
CHURCHES
As of 2022, we have 27 churches in six Provinces in the Democratic Republic of the Congo. Some are in jungle villages and some are in cities. We have churches that have thatched roofs and made of mud bricks and churches that have tin roofs and cinder block walls. The believers inside of the buildings is what matters. Wonderful, fibrant Christians, witnessing to unbelievers, and being a blessing to one another. All in the midst of years of war and a multitude of sicknesses, they serve God Almighty.
CONFERENCES
In 2016 we launched our Leadership Conferences.
We have seen great success.We have restructured
this to coincide with the four areas where we have
our churches.
We invite local city officials to our Leadership
Conferences. We teach Biblical guidelines for
leadership success and weave the gospel in, then
attach those that have trusted Christ into further
discipleship.
