Equipping Pastor’s Wives in Congo Goal: $66 to equip 30 women leaders About this Mission Project The Women’s School of Kikongo in the Democratic Republic of Congo, is a unique program that prepares the wives of student pastors for the demands of rural ministry. The women learn how to be a positive Christian role model for other women, and become development leaders in their communities. Mama Mayoyo, a current student at the school, recently led over 100 women in worship using the skills she learned and practiced. Prior to attending the school, her heart belonged to Jesus, but she’d never been to school. $66 will cover the cost for one woman to receive classroom instruction in the Bible, literacy, health, and Christian education. She’ll receive notebooks and pens, sewing supplies & training, a Bible, and ingredients for cooking & training. That money also covers nursery care and a daily glass of milk for her toddlers, and kindergarten training for older children while she’s in class.

Prior to coming to the Women’s School of Kikongo, Mama Mayoyo couldn’t read the Bible. Now she confidently shares its meaning with others.

$2,000 would equip 30 women for ministry. www.internationalministries.org
