Muyinga and Buye
Burundi

We are continuing a relationship begun in 2023 and support Bishop Jean Mweningoma and his diocese (Muyinga) and folks in the Diocese of Buye. We have supported building water supply and filtering units. We have worshiped together and sent our rector to work with the diocese of Buye. She will return in 2024 to work with the diocese of Muyinga.
