With 515 confirmed Ebola cases and 91 deaths, there is growing fear across the Democratic Republic of Congo. Tearfund has spoken to one of the church leaders we work alongside on the frontline of the Ebola epidemic in the DRC.

'We are afraid these days because of the deaths caused by the Ebola epidemic. This situation is very serious,' says Reverend Pastor JarieKong’A Munguromo Penuel.

Tearfund is currently working with local partners and faith leaders to share prevention and safety guidelines, distributing hygiene kits with soap for handwashing, building toilets and managing waste, to prevent the spread of the disease.

Donate to our Ebola Crisis Appeal and help Tearfund and our local partners provide life-saving supplies to people affected by the Ebola outbreak. https://f.mtr.cool/aanafqwops

19 deaths have been reported so far, and countless families have lost their homes.

High devastation has been reported in General Santos, Davao, Davao del Norte, Cotabato, Zamboanga del Sur, and Sultan Kudarat.

Please keep praying for the affected people in the Philippines and God's mercy for any follow-up tsunamis or calamities.

We are thankful for volunteers like Norman who take joy in knowing that what they do here in Northern Ireland is helping global neighbours overcome extreme poverty. Norman may never meet the families he supports, but his partnership has a far-reaching impact, equipping local churches to transform communities.

Where does love lead you?

For us, it leads to the heart of the world's hardest places. It leads to communities rising above poverty and conflict. It leads to the restoration of hope where it was once dimmed.

Jesus didn’t stay at a distance. He moved toward the pain to restore what was broken. We follow his lead, entering into the world's most challenging situations so that no one is forgotten and no community is left behind.

Join us where the barriers fall, and possibility stirs.

Tearfund. Where love leads.

A deadly Ebola outbreak is tearing through the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC).

As of 27 May 2026, 240 people have died, believed to be from Ebola, with more than 1000 suspected cases. And the numbers are growing fast.

God calls us to show compassion for our neighbours near and far. His love leads us to respond in times of crisis.

Your donation will help Tearfund, our partners, and local churches provide life-saving hygiene supplies and help communities prevent the spread of this virus. https://f.mtr.cool/nehqrwqtnm
