Burundi: the advancing role of the Anglican Church
Burundi is a country of 12 million people
to the south of Uganda and Rwanda. The
Anglican Church of Burundi was started
in 1935 by the Church Missionary Society
and Ugandan and Rwandan missionaries.
It is known for standing on three pillars :
evangelism, medical services and education.
The Church, now numbering about 1million
members, has been able to grow and make
an impact from its foundation up to today
because of the influence and fruits of the East
African Revival Movement. This movement
emphasises the love of God and love of one
another, salvation, walking in the light with
one another, and staying
in fellowship as
brethren.
