DRC: 3 years since the first Kimbangu Day

April 6 is celebrated as Kimbangu Day in honor of Simon Kimbangu, founder of one of Africa's largest independent churches, who spent 30 years in prison. His message of black liberation theology, rooted in African realities, continues to resonate in a Congo facing instability. Nkamba, a village south of Kinshasa, has become a pilgrimage site for followers. Kimbangu is compared to Nelson Mandela for his destiny marked by suffering and resistance.
