Of all the pastors there is only one degree holder. Others have either a Diploma or have done 6-9 month courses. The priority would be to send people to ISThA, but this is very difficult and there are spaces at Mindolo Centre in Zambia so the plan is to send 5 candidates there. The Youth department is affiliated with the Boys' Brigade and is carrying on with difficulty and there is collaboration in running Primary and Secondary schools with other denominations. Churches often meet in people's homes, so there is a need to buy plots of land and build.
Christians can build walls but roofing sheets are a problem.
North Kivu Nord Kivu feels the threat of the Rwandans but is more troubled by rebels in the Rwenzori mountains. These rebels are also against the Anglican Church because they think Museveni is an Anglican. In 1997 they killed two pastors and five evangelists. Many people have had to flee from the area and two archdeaconries are not functioning. However 10 of the 12 health centres are still open due to the commitment of senior staff Patrick and Baliesima.
