Abstract

This article explores dynamics surrounding the growth of Fraternité Évangélique de Pentecôte en Afrique au Congo, or FEPACO, the largest non-Catholic church in the Democratic Republic of Congo. The revitalization of FEPACO has been triggered by the development of a mission model built on (1) a process of glocalization that promotes an indigenous theology, (2) a local theology of missions and well-being and a comprehensive view of prayer for all needs, and (3) a ministry philosophy that challenges the widespread negative perception of women and children. It also considers the need for FEPACO to engage Congo’s current unhealthy social and political environment.
