The NCP Congo
Partnership Is:
Building hope, relationships, and empowerment for the people of DR Congo and New Castle Presbytery through mutual respect, understanding, support, and love.
“When we come together, we rise. And in the world
we’re building, everyone rises. No one is exploited
because they’re poor or excluded because they’re weak…We have shed our false boundaries.
We can love without limits. We see ourselves in others. We see ourselves as others. That is the moment of lift”.
Melinda Gates
The NCP Congo partnership was established in 2004 with Kananga Presbytery, located in West Kasai province of central Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC).
Currently, our team consists of 18 churches and
four new church developments.
“We love because He first loved us.”

News from our Congo Partnership:
Our friend Simon Ntumba recently traveled on horrendous roads to get to the city of Mbuji Mayi to deliver bibles. The youth of Kananga Presbytery just built an oven and are learning to make bread to sell for help support their families. The women are gathering to sew clothes to sell for added income.
Our brothers and sisters are busy as we are preparing for advent and Christmas worship and festivities. In this season of joy and celebration of our Savior’s birth, please remember them in your prayers, as they too are praying for us.
And if you’d like to make a donation, there are numerous choices on our website at www.ncpcongo.com .
Bibles cost $16, more than many can afford. A gift of $10 will help subsidize the cost. Vulnerable children are always in need of funds to pay their tuition and school supplies. A gift of $75 will cover their expenses for a year. It’s rainy season which means more erosion threatens to destroy homes, even churches.
A gift can help buy sandbags and provide for those facing damages and displacement. Or you can make a general donation and our team will allocate it as needed.
We are most grateful for our Presbytery’s generous support through the years. It continues to bear fruit as we approach the new year.
Joy and peace, Laurie Loveless, NCPCongo Partnership conven
Over 300 children attended Bible Camp in the Congo!
Praise the Lord!
