Jessica Melagne and Espérance Kamata serve in Bunia, DR Congo, in youth ministry with the CECA 20 church. There is currently no real discipleship for young people outside of a weekly youth service, so Jessica and Espérance are working on how their youth discipleship knowledge can be culturally adapted for use in Bunia. Please pray for wisdom for Jessica, Espérance and local church leaders in understanding the needs of young people in their churches and how to disciple them well. 

Jessica Melagne serves in Bunia, DR Congo in youth ministry with the CECA 20 church. Praise God that Espérance Kamata has now recovered from Covid-19 and been able to join her in Bunia! Please pray for both Jessica and Espérance as they settle in to life and ministry in Bunia, start building relationships with the people they will serve and those they will serve alongside, and begin their ministry.

Jessica Melagne flew to Kenya yesterday to attend AIM’s Africa Based Orientation (ABO) before travelling onwards to an assignment in Bunia, DR Congo in February. Unfortunately Espérance Kamata was not able to travel with her due to a positive Covid-19 test, pray that she will soon be able to follow Jessica. Both are still raising funds for their ministry, pray that funds will come in to allow them to complete their service in DR Congo as well as for the practicalities and logistics of beginning work there, that plans will fall into place and official documents will be processed in a timely way.
