Recommended Reading: 100 Years of Methodism in East Congo

This year marks the 100th anniversary of the arrival of Methodist missionaries in Tunda in the Democratic Republic of Congo, which was the beginning of Methodism in what is now the East Congo Episcopal Area. Earlier this month, the East Congo Episcopal Area hosted a centenary celebration, with all four Congolese bishops as well as many other guests attending. For more on that celebration and the history of Methodism in East Congo, see this article (in German) from the Swiss United Methodist website and the videos posted to the East Congo Episcopal Area Facebook page.
