The Pygmy churches were not forgotten in our programme. It was my joy to be invited, during my visit to Kongolo, to attend the dedication of the church built with the efforts and contribution of many Christians, including Pygmies. This is really something extraordinary for the churches of DR Congo who still have their hands stretched outward looking to the West to "supply all of their needs". Other churches we visited were much more basic, a simple gathering of God's people under tarpaulins or a tree—anywhere there was shade or shelter.
