Article on Faith Leaders Adapting During Ebola - and CCIH Update

[Kathy Erb]

Hello All,

This article in Religion News Service, "As Ebola spreads in war-torn eastern Congo, faith leaders adapt," explains how faith leaders in DRC are adapting their usual practices to continue serving their communities during the Ebola outbreak. The outbreak has created unexpected pastoral challenges as religious leaders try to balance faith with public health advice regarding gathering and, in particular, burial practices.

How CCIH Is Helping

CCIH continues to add materials to our curated Resources library (select Ebola as Topic) to help FBOs and others navigate this outbreak.

We have also awarded two emergency-response microgrants to CCIH members. Support the fund here. 

Thank you,
Kathy
