 âAnd the pastors, they do this work believing we have their backs. I 
donât
  want to be the one to tell them that we donât.â âThe Rev. Bob 
Walters, a
                   founder of Friendly Planet Missiology.

Pastors bike through Congo to bring hope

   NASHVILLE, Tenn. (UMNS) -- Hop on a bike, ride a hundred 
kilometers or so
   into âle triangle de la mortâ (the triangle of death) and bring 
hope to
   people who feel forgotten. Typical day for the Rev. Bob Walters 
and the Rev.
   Joseph Mulongo. At least it was typical for them for six weeks in 
February
   and March when they rode 620 miles deep into the Democratic 
Republic of
   Congo to parts of the district that havenât been visited since the 
war
   ended.

inquiring
   about the General Conference secretaryâs authority to adjust the 
number of
   delegates participating in the legislative gathering. The General
   Conference, which gathers every four years, will next meet in 
2012. The
   Judicial Council had a long docket at its Oct. 27-30 meeting.
