FI was able to bring Monsignor Fridolin Ambongo Besungu OFM Cap, Bishop of Bokungu Ikela Diocese in the Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC) to our Geneva office. Whilst here, Msgr Ambongo Besungu delivered a joint statement on behalf of Franciscans International on the troubling situation in Eastern DRC.
