Metropolitan Theodosios of Kinshasa, currently on a new missionary tour, recently visited the city of Kenge in the Democratic Republic of Congo, where a church is being constructed in honor of Saint Gerasimos the Hymnographer.

During his visit, the Metropolitan inspected the progress of the churchs construction and expressed satisfaction with the advancements made so far.

He addressed the faithful and the workers, speaking about the event of the Resurrection of the Lord. Together, they sang Christ is Risen, and the Metropolitan expressed his hope that, once the church construction is completed, the community will have a permanent priest to meet their ongoing worship needs.

Later in the afternoon, the missionary group traveled to the town of Kikwit, home to the parish of Saints Athanasios of Alexandria and Eleftherios. The priests and faithful of Kikwit warmly welcomed the Metropolitan of Kinshasa and his entourage.
