     In a next step, the presence of CICM in Africa has been


    explored, to begin with Congo (1888), later followed by
    Cameroon, Senegal, Zambia and Malawi. In general,
    missionary work in Africa occurs against the
    background of poor public order and services and of
    economic difficulties, but also of a vibrant variety of
    cultures and languages; some countries, especially
    Senegal, have a Muslim majority, offering opportunities
    for inter- religious dialogue, even as conversions to
    Christianity are rare.
     The CICM-mission in Congo already started in 1888. King Leopold
    II of Belgium wanted to turn his country into a prosperous and
    powerful state that could compete with other European nations
    during the high days of colonialism. Therefore, he acquired a huge
    territory, many times bigger than his own country, in the heart of
    the African continent.
     After the king had taken the initiative to put up an ‘African
    Seminary’ in Louvain for future priests in the African continent,
    and this seminary was eventually turned over to CICM, the time
    was ripe for the first team to move on, with the blessing of the
    Sacred Congregation for the Propagation of the Faith.
     The CICM missionaries were able to put up several mission
    stations; they particularly took care of the many child slaves
    who were sold by traders. With support of the government, they
    created ‘school colonies’ that provided education and training for
    those children.
     Today, missions in Congo include parishes and youth ministry.
    The huge country is affected by significant cultural and linguistic
    differences (they have four national languages, including Lingala,
    Kikongo). This presents a big challenge for missionaries.
    Inspired by Christ and the CICM
    missionaries, how can you participate
    actively in the missionary endeavors
    of the Church and in particular, the
    CICM? What could be your concrete
    contribution for social transformation?
