Detailed information

This book traces the evolution of "Anglicanism" from its origins in England, through the various twists and turns it has undergone to become today an international and universal Church, particularly from its introduction in the Democratic Republic of Congo, from Uganda, by the catechist Apolo Kivebulaya, who was its figurehead. In its first part, this book recounts the admirable and heroic evangelization and social missionary life and works of Apolo and his companions, from 1896 to 1933, the year of Apolo Kivebulaya's death. The book also briefly discusses the Anglican Church in Uganda, Burundi and Rwanda, as well as the geographical and political situation of the DRCongo, with all its political changes and intermittent wars, all of which have influenced in one way or another, the life of the Church and the contribution of missionary societies, foreign churches and partners to the development of the Anglican Church of Congo, not forgetting the visits of the Archbishops of Canterbury, Spiritual Head of the worldwide Anglican Church.
