  • The Christian Testimony of Bl. Isidore Bakanja (1887-1909) Patrick Mullins O.Carm
    DARE: Holy Trinity College Theological Journal 16 The Christian Testimony of Bl. Isidore Bakanja (1887-1909) Patrick Mullins O.Carm When African Christians look for a model of how they should respond to the call of the Gospel despite the many difficulties that they face, Bl. Isidore Bakanja provides an example of the power of Christian witness that often lies untapped in the hearts of those who have completed their Christian initiation. This short paper, outlines the circumstances in which this modern martyr lived and died in order to draw attention to the generosity with which he responded to the light of Christ when it was first revealed to him. His story challenges each one of us, in our diversity, to reflect on the implications of having only one common Father in heaven. Bakanja belonged to the Boangi tribe, who lived in the eastern part of what is now the Democratic Republic of Congo, the former Zaïre. His father, Iyonzwa, and his mother, Inyka, were pagans and Isidore was born sometime between 1884 and 1885 at Bokendela, a small village in the deep equatorial rain forest, not very far from the stream known as Botato, one of the many tributaries of Congo river. In 1904, when he was about 20 years old, Bakanja left Bokendela, travelling on a small boat made of wood as far as Mbandaka (also called Coquihatville) where he hoped to find work. At first he worked as an assistant mason building houses for the Belgian workers at Mbandaka and it was while working there that he first heard of Christianity.
