As part of Blacknall’s ongoing Deep Common Journey with Congo Initiative (in Beni, DRC) Blacknall gave $10,000 to help refurbish the community radio station that CI operates.  The equipment in the radio station had broken down and through this gift from Blacknall our friends in Beni were able to buy a new transmitter, repair the broadcast antenna and restart broadcasting.

 This radio ministry is an important part of the work of CI in Beni.  It provides needed health and community education as well as proclaiming the message of the Gospel to the entire Beni community.  If you are interested in hearing more about this Deep Common Journey or would like to get involved in working within our congregation to deepen this partnership, please contact Kim Dunderdale.
