    • The Democratic Republic of Congo

      The families of Good Shepherd Parish in Tallahassee, Florida have a solidarity partnership with the Holy Spirit Parish of Kenge in the Democratic Republic of Congo. This ministry helps members on both sides practice their faith. As the body of Christ, they pray for one another and invite everyone in the community to a life-changing encounter with Jesus, the Way and Truth and the Life, the Road to the New Jerusalem.

      Current initiatives include:

      ·      Outreach to the faithful for Eucharistic Adoration and access to holy sacraments

      ·      Rehabilitation of church infrastructure

      ·      Income generating activities to meet the physical needs of vulnerable parishioners.



      Congo Mission Appeal Exceeds All Expectations!
       
      The appeal made May 8 & 9 to help the ministry of a young priest, Fr, Jean Yangia, in the Democratic Republic of the Congo, had a goal of $15,150 to meet some immediate needs of his parish and their surrounding communities. These needs included a roof for the church, batteries and solar panels for electricity, a monstrance for adoration, educational scholarships for poor children, and several other items. The appeal raised over $20,000 and made the local news on WCTV. Fr. Jean is overwhelmed by the generosity of Good Shepherd parishioners. Here is what he wrote to us in response to this Good News:
       
      Brothers and Sisters in Christ, peace and joy of Christ be with you, 
       
      On behalf of all parishioners of the Holy Spirit in the Democratic Republic of the Congo, into the diocese of Kenge, we would like to be thankful to you for the greatest love you have shown us. Through your donation to us we have felt the meaning of being indeed brothers and sisters in Christ. You have accomplished what Jesus said: whatever you do to the least of my people, you have done it to me (Mt 25:40).
       
      We humbly beseech God's blessings upon you. May this spirit of communion between us lasted. 
       
      May God Bless America. 
      Your Brother, 
      Jean Yangia Svd.
