Four new bishops and two new dioceses in Burundi – ACNS September 22, 2017 by Fulcrum Four new bishops have been consecrated in Burundi. Two of them will serve the province’s new dioceses of Rutana and Buhiga. Buhiga played an important part in the history of Anglicanism in Burundi as it was the site of one of the first mission stations in the country, established in 1935. The former Primate of Burundi, Archbishop Bernard Ntahoturi, told the new diocese’s first bishop, Evariste Nijimbere, to “be an enabler of the Church, to do the work God wants, to share God's love and to care for people.” ACNS 21 September 2017 FulcrumShareTweetShare
