i'm going to talk about democracy about human rights, and i'm just comparing here who actually teaches those democracy. how many native americans are in the us congress who teaches us democracy and will listen to them without most open, who earns money from war some for and so the very same country, the united states of america today, they can band a party and people won't say a thing then tomorrow they'll lock up a person and people will take that to then they will come to your house accuse you, and no one will protect you because there's already a precedent. so if we're talking about the rule of law, that means that the laws above all and not decisions dictated by resentment among the most alarming scenes of violence across the globe right now are being witnessed against christians in africa. next we focus on the rise in killings, particularly in nigeria, and lose on big. it's a tough fortunately, walter warn you for the importance of

the christianity under attack in africa. tens of thousands of killed as long as the terrace groups find safe havens and the lowest visits and remove towns of africa. kidnappings. the headings moved at shasta when the line of communities and readings

pain, and they may weigh what exactly. hello and welcome to this week african now, so we come to you from midland, south africa. i mean the 1st russian orthodox church to be established in sub saharan africa. it is one of 2 on the continent. the other is in kind of at a time when the russian orthodox church in ukraine is under, was sold this week's program expose the plight of christians and christianity in africa. moscow has accused the crating of illegally 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 i mention a 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 torches and i any are 3, see on our television screens, both in russia, if there are no windows in the wall. 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're in a whole is a perception that in actual fact the church sank. defies the lines

and done that across africa and they were a number of countries with christians of finding it extremely difficult to practice . they faced. the most common reason is as long as violence and countries such as nigeria, aquinos 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 this is i, i get a plus b shows. i love, i broke around by keeping up us by binding on many of

the courses so i can see that exclusive, it says guided by which i just really thought. so does that, you know, uh, people who pieces that is photo wise because they have access to text keeps kristen would seem taxes, but for me you just services. so this is behind what this happens and i did it today because of the last thinking that yeah, we side, we still got unfortunately get, don't know, this got the side. that is right. and it is, it's been i to the most efficient to kristin's. that'd be comfortable, once i get all these forms of attack, chris says unable, once i get the most peace of mind to pump the priestess the past, the performed a lot of process that'd be too simply because as long as you guys because of the item, these are so many mean by so, so how do you list both by piece, you know,

displays and this is happening on daily basis on the, on the tables. you know, those top. ready ready with the task on the road and go pull out all the priestess . i love, i love it because that's why i didn't. this is because there's somebody a places you know that a christmas of weakness attack. yeah, i have one of quote, going to finish on, what do you want to do before you see the business of government? that is the so i guess. so to some extent we can say, you know, government is the best, but when it comes to protecting tenants in the jews, yeah. we've got most think almost how fast if, but if the government is not active or active in the shop on site visit, we followed the say that, well me, there was a lot of fun. this to look, people planned to attack the attack before after every scene has been done for the business of the items and it happens everywhere in calgary. not in many places. uh,

what is it that the when they come to load the pack, billy not goes keep, you know of that fits, i guess what i did had getting $0.03. so that's wasn't on those funds from the government side. you know, and this is happening not on nadia africa. so since i want to believe that it is because of these numbers, those prices essentially allow me to see if you don't mind, please love living just by patient. government is bias. this happening, all of i do want, this is the most of us, the car is the most, it's basically the sub saharan africa, you know, uh west africa and apply it to come to data and see how the cost to, you know, distribute them. they need to come to the, the us, the us on any of properties off. i think that that's what the guys what people look

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, if someone in the me that these 50 are what be calling me, i was social economy of what each fell on every 6 of our life. we live over from the cell into. so i pulled up the congo, meant to come together. i'm like, i'm chris. there's to some fun and the address of publishing must be shown as much me this. that's the biggest packet. even before, just as if continuous entities, those quotes and in the east, it's much the same. one of the world's oldest churches in ethiopia, the tower heater church, appears to result a month from schism that spot disney tasha's off to arrival final was formed. the divisions remained at risk tearing the institution and the country a pos well. busy

uh, let me uh oh, in order to explain the reason behind the toiling, so if you to found or sort of saw a doctor. so there are 3 main points is the 1st one is, you know, as you know, if your pan or sort of still had to charge, keeping the social control of phrase any ciocca and in other, uh, you know, in other countries in foreign countries also because you know you to pan or sort of still had to church and is found in different ways turn and uh and other off we can country. so do you see the one thing or the reason of being the 1st, the reason behind the trolling in the 2nd bonnie, the territory of boundary. as we know that your panel was sort of still had to, to our keepers and the you to 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, and then the main thing that makes the challenges and um, you know, the, the, the, the looked when also the literature or future pan or sort of still have the church as you know, on the western a mentally, it's not related with the worst on the culture. so um 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 we didn't either, you know, uh, 40 and 14 um, uh, 40 and telling, just so i think these are the 3 main problems they tip in optics to are the church has been experiencing grass suffering, seeing the tale. and envision the charge is passing systematic, indestructible laptops, deal to its protection of the people of youtube. yeah. from west and the cost for

the vision for the church has been uniting the people and in i believe it's paul or tucson to family for the territories integrity of the country that didn't try to the charges on it because patient all the pressure on optics. kristin around the water. let the swap melissa out of the t. a. d. stop by o. swim the continent in mozambique. the persecution of christians is most severe in the northern cub delgado. province of also a 100. columbus has a way on the banks of this, and peasy river is a centuries old church and the roman we travel to the church to meet bishop demonte know who leads the community of 3000000 questions in the most in beacon province of chase. this is the, the church on the bank. so there's nbc river, in northern most would be kind of problems. quarter tate. it was both a 158 years ago. and in that time it's fun. a hospital, a hospital. it conversely ones

a school and has baby and existing services and also to 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 from the weapon to and so being a missionary for 25 years and most of the wednesday and sunday and i've worked and several dias in this country, has been says in the north, not in the, in the center about in the south in my put to the quite the one and 4 years ago and on the 2019 protest points of the bishop of the diocese of texas tech. and then i arrived as 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 offer 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 in various stations. vitamin is being taught missionaries for many is size, gustavo, some, and as i'm more than 50, is during the, the oval between portuguese, the, and the resistance who fought the colonial governments. all the missionaries had to leave the emissions of the independents value, political regime, which was not very fond of the church. rather, on the contrary, they saw in the church a competition and an opposition. so the missionaries could not return from bad. i was here at the church a year ago and in from day to now so much has changed. what are you doing to the church and is the community growing 125 years besides your reading this 3, this below i found several mission 0 in school, destroyed by abandonment. 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 as you say. and one of the oldest and most important in mozambique send for its history or the contribution to it has made to evangelization and above all the promotion of the mos in beacon man. you don't sense here was very important educational send to us which is full of generations and generations of young people from 1884 to the present. it is strange young people from all over central mozambie not only from the province of tents, but also from the province of monica in the province of. so follow holland and then b, z a z. it's 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? and as of the school year, the reason for the choice to build this initiative found just because it was

amazing the now the design was problem gateway to the actually, cont, continually to dollars. and even if they went to the coast of the indian ocean, that's with the interior of our this river runs to some bob with them out of it and go to it. so it was a phase of assets and i called and facilitated. at that time, there was no controls or looks difficult. the child support was across the river by but as long as the scale is zip as well because united this mission was bought from children who are rescued. the missionaries themselves for children edwards to be sold during that time is involved with them ends. i'm going to see how much becky, risk it, the children, and brought them here for they educated them, you know, from nurtured and they started families or so let me see guys per complete data. it's kind of a daughter. this was an issue of the mission canaries. to combat slavery, to promote the in google population who lives here around say it, and then be 0. that is the reason bad is where it for you, for the 0. they ship. how do you feel about the future of christianity in africa?

we receive reports almost on a daily basis of christian communities being attacked and nigeria and in other countries in africa. are you worried about the future of christianity in africa? let somebody say associate to them. i think the challenges are great. that's fine. yeah. would we would missing in sub saharan with the us because on so is the total which has greatly affected christian communities and cut the losses. i meant to look in the past. so molly, i was bench area and the central african republic area and also in camry. uh so in fact, in recent years, islamic offensive improve because the cool does allow me towards you some loaners alignment communities has been of great aggressiveness lead to, in fact, in recent years, 50 is lot, make a sense, will so cold as well, and went towards non economic communities as being of great affective knowledge with adoptions, dancers, and this in fact,

as ended the presence of judge from east africa, i was just seeing the same thing. cool little those phenomena just perhaps not so serious with who was here from some all in kenya and tanzania. mozambie. yeah, there is being radicalized that you ask for him. however, i think that square 3 came in boats engineer, the government has been able to mobilize, you have to confront. so this is not make advance. if thoughts of you, i'm in front of me, it's elizabeth got a quote to him. 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 audio, it will not be of the mass of the loss as of the cost of tradition of the cell. it will be, it should utilize, it could just clarify and the minority patty am i speaking with i think of people more conservative and face. see then who will be witnesses of the gospel? kids in a very difficult concepts then due to secularization,

the end of the whole culture, which often goes against the values of the gospel, nowhere while in africa. in fact, the tendency, what's really good factor. we have a young church that is but we know that the winds of secularism and other idea on the gm's cause arrive via video. we must also prepare new generations and we do have people and lots and lots of my knowledge of the size. you mentioned earlier is that make fund of maintenance and do you think we're looking at a clash of sites or is it more about politics? there's less squares experienced in the province of the these lubbock presidents, a small, not very significant. so that's the little glass here. ok, which is yours. we see mosques popping up everywhere and was on the line make up as long as in the strongest of the coast this most indeed and, and then all of them i what do you watch with concern? because at the moment is only if it lives in beak is facing, is it adage and see in the saw in the province of cobbler delgado,

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 all into the religious matrix and to defend. the interest is the opposite side, mozambique instead of actual yeah. okay. and to, to christian and also you may want to use a 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 leaders. you somebody, there is. an open condemnation. is the insurgency in mozambique as an appeal that there is an understanding that this will and i think there is fact that there is no uniform is usually catholic church in christianity of africa because this is the food. so eventually ization of africa. i almost have to evangelize ation was done by different faced and different regions of the church. that's what the differences of expression between the church of english speaking world of east africa ever had

the catholic church for example, a sound the concrete entrepreneur confided advocacy manta is complimentary of that . what you agree with the statement that the future of christianity is in africa, the african african. but i think that after will make an even greater than contribution to the church, but not only from the numerical slowly 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 today. so it's been 5 years now, but i just made my 1st browse, so i am on a really new nun for 3 months. and system mary saras, i'm from the seeds of the word coming to the castle. we couldn't community that he's the was invited to buy or bishop a in mozambie teen tech to, to make this beautiful place be born again. all the

beauty, all these amazing new dean. i'm in the middle of nowhere. how can i say that? 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 of 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 prizes. 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 souls. when we, we arrived, we saw the was very, very, how can you say with names on it. so the 1st and we, we did was to cover it. so i think it was for safe in the missionaries that that, that have to, to run out because of, of mozambique history of a fi teen or resolution. 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 pain team, 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 we have, 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 minutes, not only a place to 30, but he's a sanctuary. dedicated to centrals 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 lives, so we have on sundays before are here always they come to our house. they talk to was so and also there are lots of local paper work, you know, so we're not alone doing this work, but it's been if we're 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 leave our lives with us just to take 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 healing, lose, and promotion. a just piece 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 the international stage until then catch us on any of the social media networks that you see on the screen for myself and the team until next week. good. by the

whatever you do, don't want marshall state main street because i'm probably going to make you uncomfortable. my show is called direction. but again, we don't wanna watch it because it might just change the way you the little one. no, no, not a real pleasure. but to most of the location of the unit 731 was a unique organization in the history of the world. what they were trying to do was to simply do nothing short and build the most powerful and most deadly biological weapons program that the world had every now through you know, to production with it. so just to show the great

deal to the new. so new that sort of you keep on my mazda thought, this new name for me, one of our, from the sale of that i don't understand. i've wished enough about doing so need, i know he gave him some more or less than a j o. i had to put on with this kind of them, why the, i don't know a party bill because you cannot push the couch. so that's doable to deal with a 00. want this on this to should buy a new on it. on site can send me someone gave me the yo yo, now i'm gonna put the ticket bucket together. the,
