GEMENA, CONGO (November 29, 2004) – A visit to the Bokonzo Health Clinic in Gemena shows much progress being made, including a new building, though much work remains to be done. Here are snapshots of that visit, which coincided with the delegation’s tour of the Congo Covenant Church (CEUM) headquarters.
