Congolese Pastorship to Ensure Child Protection in Churches
The Congolese Church Pastorship must now ensure that its robust new child protection procedures are "cascaded down to influence Congolese churches," the Executive Director of the Churches' Child Protection Advisory Services (CCPAS) recently said.
Director David Pearson further noted that "all leaders and children's' workers must now receive appropriate child protection training."
More than 200 Congolese church leaders gathered recently in the presence of Children's Minister Beverley Hughes to pledge the best possible protection for the children in their congregations.
