course fantasy under attack in africa. tens of thousands or killed as long as terrace groups find safe havens, and the lowest visits and remove towns of africa, kidnappings, the headings, murder, shattering the lives of communities, and meetings, pain and day, in a waif to what exactly is the hello and welcome to this week's african now,

so we come to you from midway in south africa. i'm in the 1st russian orthodox church to be established in sub saharan africa. it is one of the 2 on the continent . the other is in kind of at a time when the russian orthodox church and ukraine is under, was sold this week's program expose the plight of christians and christianity in africa. moscow has accused the crating of a legally attacking the ukrainian orthodox church. i know for a fact that the south african council of churches have had extensive conversations with all the parties involved, all the parties. um, but you know, if i decide that you are my enemy and you represent the devil can be very difficult to shift you. and so i,

i want to challenge the church and say that is exactly we're origin. that is the work of opening up dialogue between russia and america. for starters, that dis able's, the killing of people, the tall chest and i any are 3, see on our television screens, both in russia and they don't know when is in the war. and what has happened way is the voice that says that what's happening to the greek orthodox and the russian orthodox church is all they just complicit in whichever side or whichever country they are in. oh, is it a perception that an act will affect the church? sanctity size, and that's and then that across africa and they were

a number of countries with christians on finding it looks really difficult to practice. they think the most common reason is as long as violence in countries such as nigeria, aquino, and sudan. in these communities, christians faced serious restrictions on they were billeted to practice the faith freely and it is not uncommon for them to be arrested and detained. without explanation, the situation is most pressing in nigeria, we please continue to be kidnapped and often killed. young women, stone to death and station lice. it's close now to nigeria. the priest is a little invested because because this i didn't take, it must be shows. i love, i broke around by do not pass by binding on many of the furthest so i can see that

this is about 6 east guided by which i just clearly thought. so does that, you know, uh, people with pieces that is photo wise because they have access to text from keeps chris, them would seem patches, but let me read your services. so this is behind what this happens. neither today because the flash thinking that yeah, dream side we still got unfortunately get, don't know this got that job. that is why minute is didn't i to the most efficient me christmas. have you comfortable? one tied you, all these forms of attack christians unable once i get the most efficient way to pump the priestess get past the surface, performed a lot of process. that'd be just simply because as long as you guys took the course of data, these are so many mean by so, so how do you list properties, you know, displays and this is happening on a daily basis on the,

on the high levels. you know, those top is the, the, the costs on the road and go pull out all decreased as a matter of course. that's why i didn't. this is because there's some, it is a, let's use, you know, that a christmas a weakness attack the packing of coal. going to finish on why do you want to do before you see the business of government? that is the so just so to some extent we can say, you know, government is the best, but it's possible protecting tenants in my g. yeah. we've got most think almost how fast if, but if the government is not active active in the on site, this is from the say that, well me, there's a lot of fun. if this to look, people are planned to attack the attack before asked that every seat has been done 1st through the presence of the items on the passes everywhere. not in many places

. uh, why is it that the, the, when they come to load the attack, don't not. you don't keep, you know, of that 5th a that, that's what i did, i get increased and so that's what i'm best time somebody go most site, you know, and this is happened and not on my duty after the fact. so since i want to believe that it is because of these numbers, just the size of allow me to see age a government these lot leaving just i patient government is bias which is happening all of our the was as the most of us, the car is like what is basically the sub saharan africa, you know, uh west africa and apply it to come together and see how the accounts to, you know, do city jump, do you need to come to do that? i see us on any of properties off. i think i might as well if the guys would be hook me up. you guys know how one of the car is going down down, down, down,

down. so unless we realize that we are fighting it from one enemy, that is, i think, the economy, a white social economy for each and every 6 of our life we live over from the cell into. so i pulled up the compliment to come together. i'm like, i'm chris, there's some fun in the face of prostitution. must be shown as much me this that's the biggest packet. even before, just as if continuous entities, those concepts and in the east, it's much the same. one of the world's oldest churches in ethiopia, the tower heater church, appears to have as old a month long because i'm that spock did natasha's off to arrival sign on was formed . the divisions remain that risk tearing the institution and the country a poss, well. busy uh,

let me uh oh, in order to explain the reason behind the toiling, so if you to a fan or sort of saw her daughter. so there are see, my important says the 1st one is, you know, as you know, your pin or sort of still have to start keeping the social control of phrase any ciocca and in other, uh, you know, in other countries, in 14 countries also because you know, each your panel sort of still had to charge and is found in different widths turn um, uh, end other off we can country. so this is the one thing or the reason of being the 1st reason behind the trolling in the 2nd bonnie, the territory of boundary, as we know that you to pan or sort of still have to try to keep us in the if you appear in 30 stories related with the peoples and are related with the social and

the social perspective. so this is the 2nd thing. and the 3rd thing, or the mean that the main thing that makes the challenges and you know, the, the, the, the, the look between also the literature and future pan or sort of still handle church as you know, on the western. mainly it's not related with the worst on the culture. so, um the that the disorder telling, so these challenges leads us um the least had a problem to it's your pan or sort of still had to charge directly or indirectly within the government and within other you know, uh 40 and 14 um, uh, 40 and telling just so i think these are the 3 main problems they to a pin off talks to are. the church has been experiencing great suffering seen the tale and envision the church is passing systematic, indestructible laptops deal to is protection of the people of youtube. you from west and the cultural and vision for the church has been uniting the people and in

abilene it's paul or tucson, to fi, emily for the territorial integrity of the country that didn't try to the charges on it because patient all the pressure on optics. kristen, i around the water. let the swap melissa. out of the t. a. d. stop by o. swim the continent in motion beat. the persecution of christians is most sylvia in the northern co delgado province. about a 100 columbus has a weight on the banks of this, and peasy river is a centuries old church, and the roman we travel to the church to meet bishop dean martino who leads the community of 3000000 questions and the most in beacon province of test this is the, the church from the bank for the simple easy river in northern, loosened feet and a province called tate. it was both a 158 years ago. and in that time it's one a hospital, a hospital. it converts the ones at school and has baby and routine services,

and also the full set nearby community bishop. and thank you so much to talk to us . please tell me a little bit about yourself. where are you from? and how did you land up here? impact, i'm some different the weapon to and so being a missionary for 25 years and most indeed wednesday and sunday. and i've worked and several dias in this country. yes. as it stands in the north and not in the, in the sense that i am on in the south, in my put to that quite the one and 4 years ago. and i am 2019 and thought process . pointed me, bishop of the diocese of texas tech, and then i arrived at bishop and i am a missionary, says, as before, can be as increased responsibilities seem to me, said, always with a great desire to serve these people. and it's trish offered with advocacy this. what was the situation like here 4 years ago when you came and what has been the most important things for you to focus on configure when i arrived instead of

a 2019, the priority i had to face is placing missionaries and various stations databases being taught missionaries for many years, so i have some, and as i'm more than 50 is during the, the oval between portuguese, the, and the resistance. who for the colonial governments, all of the missionaries, had to leave the emissions of to independence, fairly political regime, which is not very fond of the church. rather, on the contrary, they sole in the church, a competition, and an opposition. so the missionaries could not return on to that. i was here at the church a here at the end in from day to now. so much has changed. what are you doing to the church and is the community growing or 25 years? and as long as you're reading this 3, this below, i found several mission 0 in school, destroyed by abundant minutes. again, neglect, and also by will. and this for i'm a mission is a historic mission. it is the oldest of the diocese with taxes at the say. and one

of the oldest and most important in mozambique sense for its history or the contribution that has made to evangelization. and above all the promotion of the mos in beacon, man, you don't sense here was very important educational since the switches from generations and generations of young people from 1884 to the present. it is strange young people from all over central mozambique. not only from the province of tests, but also from the province of monica in the province of safari, holla, and then b, z a. it feels to some extent that we are in the middle of nowhere. so why was this place chosen as the place to build a church? and why is it important to have a community, particularly at this point as of the school year? the reason for the choice to build this initiative sounds is because google visa, the, now the design was put on gateway to the applicant concert,

nationally to dollars. and even if they went to the coast of the indian ocean is to the interior of our this river runs to some bob with them out of it and go to it. so it was a phase our message and i called and facilitates it. at that time there was no contracts and it looks beautiful. the child support was across the river by but it's on the scale is good 1000 scrubs missing items. this mission was bought from children who are rescued. the missionaries themselves bought children edwards to be sold during that time, and it is involved with them and them at risk it the children and brought them here for the educated them, you know, from nurtured. and they started families ortho, mr. dice, but it's kind of a daughter. this was an issue of the missionaries to combat slavery, to promote in google population, who lived to around say it, and then be the river. and that is the reason bath is square for you if we go to 0, they should. how do you feel about the future of christianity in africa?

we receive reports almost on a daily basis of christian communities being attacked in nigeria and in other countries in africa. are you worried about the future of christianity in africa? and let me say so say to the 19th and challenges. okay, that's fine. yeah. what we would be seeing in sub saharan with the us because i'm von so is i'm toodle which has greatly affected christian communities and cut the walk with them and looking across. so molly, i was bench area and the central african republic area and also in cameras. so in fact, and in recent years, islamic offensive vip over the course of the cold islamic towards the learners. lama communities has been of great aggressiveness lead. in fact, in recent years, 50 as lot make a fence as well. so told islamic and went towards non economic communities as being of great effective molecules with adoptions, dances. and this, in fact, there's ended the present judge from east africa. i was just seeing the same thing

called legal the phenomenon den, perhaps not so serious because it was viewed from some on, in kenya and tanzania. mozambie. yeah, there is being ready to live there. you ask for them. however, i think that whether it came in boats engineer, the government has been able to mobilize, you have to confront of this is not making vaughn school. he had thoughts of you make fun to mention the quote the and what about here with how do you see the future of christianity in view? it? is that something that was easy? i don't think i have it all, but besides the church and you will be more and more because the minority church on it, it will not be of the masses loss as of the part of tradition of the so it'll be it should you guys could just clarify and the minority patty am i speaking with i think of people local service like that on face suit and who will be witnesses of the gospel case in a very difficult concert exam due to secularization, the end of the whole culture, which often goes against the values of the gospel,

nowhere while in africa and in fact the tendency. what's the good factor we have the old church it is. we know that the winds of secularism and other ideology in schools was arrived. the reason we must also prepare new generation them, they do have a few more and lots and lots of my knowledge of the size you mentioned earlier is what makes on demand tell us. and do you think we're looking at a class of sites, or is it more about politics? there's really squares experienced in the province of by the these lumnick presidents, a small, not very significant. so that's the last you out with these yards. we see mosques popping up everywhere. it was a lot of make up as long as the strongest of it goes because most indeed and, and then all of them i, what do you watch with concern? because at the moment is wrong with losing because facing is it adage and see in the long. so the province of a couple of dog guards on which also affects the neighboring provinces. this isn't comic act down or says the cause of the interest from

a couple nights ago because they cannot make and such they're going to view the man to take advantage of the religious matrix. again to defend. the interest is the opposite side, mozambique instead of civil. yeah. okay. and to the state and also the communities and heal political move. yeah. all this stuff that kind of look and then, but i think there is an interest by the church, up to dialogues with them. loans from the point of view of religious need is somebody there is an open condemnation, across is the insurgency in mozambique as an appeal that there is an understanding that this will in, i think there is fabulous. there is no uniform, it's usually catholic church and christianity of africa because this is the fluids that we've naturalization of africa. i almost have to be evangelize ation was done by different faced and different regions of the church. and that's what the differences of expression between the church of english speaking world of east africa ever had the catholic church, for example, the sound,

the complete spoken ties advocacy. mantle is complimentary of that. what you agree with the statement that the future of christianity is in africa, not only of african african, but i think that africa will make an even greater than contribution to the church, but not only from the numerical holy abuse in the matter in the number of catholics, but also in the way of living the faith, them communicating that while there is going concern that the assault by islamic extremist and northern mozambique would expand and then this will prevent the community. a group of nuns are working hard with locals to restore. not only the church, but also the faith. the

so i doe in the community 2018 for us about to co ear that it's a of biblical formation and mission. and then i received this calling to join the religion of live and the missionary lives. so i've been in the community seems there. so he's been 5 years now, but i just made my 1st browse. so i am on a really new nun for 3 months. and she said, mary, sarah, i'm from the seat of the word coming to the castle. we couldn't community that he's the was invited to buy or bishop a mozambie teen tech to, to make this beautiful place be born again. all the beauty, all these amazing view dean, i'm in the middle of nowhere. how can i say,

but at the same time, i think the people because this is, this is there's and so i think it's fair for us as the church to give them back all these beauty and all the dignity. because when it was 1st built, there was no cameras, no pictures, no social media. so people call on monday and, and, and process. so it was built for them. this is a wonderful sanctuary dedicated to 10 joseph. and it was built in 1985 by judges. it's the biggest center, wary of africa. it's very important as present. and since the 50 s that was a little bit well take care. and now we,

we are rebuilding everything. first the, the walls and then the sol. when we arrived we saw the was very rarely how can we say with names on it. so the 1st thing we, we did was to cover it. um, so i think it was for sake and the missionaries that, that, that have to, to run out because of, of most of the history of a fi teen or revolution. so it, it was for safe and i think it was because of that that was destroyed we, we are helping to restore the, the beauty and the images. so when we 1st arrived, we took all the image down to restore them. they were very dirty. they were broken, so we started with, with, with the images. so these tattoos,

so we're, we're painting, i'm restoring basically painting as it was before. we have no intention to change the, the history of this place, but we have to to, to give back what as it was before every day mess and you have now o, celebrations. morning prayers and evening prayers and rehab we are committed to consecrated live community with brothers and sisters. that if you pray and we were to rebuild the oldest place into a to make it beautiful again, this belongs to the minute, not only a place to 30, but to the same, to area dedicated to central's, if everybody can help us to rebuild. since it's such a huge

a tend to every we need help for sure. this community is very young to live, so we have on sundays before are here always. they come to our house, they talk to us. so and also there are lots of local people working on it. so we're not alone doing this work, but it's been deceived or already started before we arrive. our 1st mission is to make the word of god accessible to every one. and we do days in many ways, for example, the sabbatical year. that is this period of 9 months that people come and study with as leaves our lives with us. just just taste a missionary. life does work of beauty. it is one way because making this accessible again, the word of god is a spread. so it's part of,

of, of our carriers and to make the word of god accessible to all of the old people from the kids to the adults, to the young people. every church's has a vital role to play in, heating, lose, and promotion. a just peace for the world. well, that brings us to the end of this week shows. next week we will be visiting 90 would. i'm sure you've always heard of hollywood and bollywood. well, we go to normally would in nigeria and ask with an african also saw being ha, done by on the international stage until then catch off on any of the social media networks that you see on the screen for myself and the team until next week. good by the
