Congolese Grandpa book cover

Grandpa’s life is one that will fascinate your mind and capture your soul as you hear of his enduring love for his people through colonialist strife, independence, civil war, exile, poverty, and failed relationships.

The biography focuses on this remarkable individual whilst interweaving the bigger picture happenings throughout the Democratic Republic of Congo. It is hoped that through this biography we will paint a different picture of the DRC to the world. We long to shed light on the lives of ordinary Congolese men and women living extraordinary lives. We desire that it will encourage you to once more have hope for the future of this beautiful nation.

If you would like to purchase a copy of this book and so support development work in the DRC, you can do so through several channels including: in print from Amazon in b&w or colour. It is also available as an ebook on Kindle, Nook, iBooks, Kobo, Scribd, Inktera, Oyster, Tolino, and more.

All author proceeds go back to the people of the DRC and ministries in this nation, particularly Redefined Ministries International.
