UGANDA

In recent years Uganda has become infamous for the Lord’s Resistance Army and its elusive leader Joseph Kony. This conflict has killed over 100,000 people and displaced almost 2 million, half of whom are currently living in poverty in refugee camps. Furthermore, it has brutalized thousands of child soldiers and sex slaves who were forced to serve in his army. Nevertheless, church attendance and interest in Christianity have been high.

Because of inter-tribal warfare and widespread corruption, in recent years the DRC has become one of the world’s poorest countries. It has an almost non-existent infrastructure, including roads, basic utilities, and government. Rape and torture are commonly used by rival militias to terrorize villages. Although 90% of the Congolese people profess Christianity, brutality, witchcraft, and evil rule over the land. There have been more deaths here in recent years than in any conflict since World War II.
