Event Details


September 25, 2025 | 2:00–4:00pm PT
Fuller Seminary Campus, Payton Geneva Room & Online (Use the 
online registration form for virtual attendance)

Join the Fuller Center for Peacebuilding and Conflict Transformation for a powerful panel conversation with Congolese peacemakers James and Riziki Byensi, founders of Rebuilders Ministry in Bunia, Democratic Republic of Congo.

For more than a decade, James and Riziki have been on the frontlines of one of the world’s most overlooked conflicts—bringing healing, education, food security, and reconciliation to communities devastated by violence and displacement. Their work, often carried out under personal risk, has earned both local and international recognition as a model of courageous, faith-driven peacebuilding. They will be joined by Fuller Seminary faculty with expertise in global and intercultural peacebuilding for a conversation on faith, resilience, and the urgent call to rebuild communities in the midst of conflict.

Don’t miss this opportunity to learn from two remarkable leaders whose story is both heartbreaking and deeply hopeful.
