A town built on a hill cannot be hidden.<\/i>&#8221; \u2013 (Matthew 5:14, NIV) <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p> In these words, our lord Jesus encouraged the first disciples to light the dark world. Indeed, thanks to light, a town built on a hill cannot be hidden, even at night. So the goal of each disciple is to bring light in darkness. We&#8217;ve been working on many projects the past few months here in the Central African Region Churches (CARC) with this goal, and God has blessed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p> A few months ago, a team of disciples was set to work on creating a new website for the region to connect our 15 churches After several tryouts, the Central African Region Churches have launched our website <a href=\"http:\/\/www.icocrdc.org\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">www.icocrdc.org<\/a>, a tool that highlights the churches&#8217; activities and helps evangelize throughout our region, which includes the Democratic Republic of the Congo, Congo Republic, Central African Republic, Gabon, Cameroon, and Chad.<\/p><p> Furthermore, since the <a href=\"https:\/\/disciplestoday.org\/clone\/clone\/the-birth-of-the-french-speaking-central-africa-family-of-churches\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">creation of our region<\/a> in August 2019, in Brazzaville, we have seen much good news. From January to June 2020, the 15 churches in our region have welcomed 105 brothers and sisters, all baptisms and restorations, which is especially noteworthy during the COVID-19 pandemic. It is amazing to see how God uses a disease to convert souls. <\/div><div> Much is yet to come and, thanks to all our prayers and devotions to God, central Africa will be more enlightened.
