First woman ordained in South Zaire Methodist Church
Kiboko, 29, became the first woman ordained among 250 ministers in the South Zaire Conference and the second woman ordained in all denominations in Zaire. She and her husband, Rev. Kalamba Kilumba, celebrated their Aug. 1 marriage and will pursue theology doctorates at Drake University. Local Methodists aided with funds and passports as Kiboko faced opposition from peers and newspapers. The couple plans to return to Zaire to teach and lead churches, expanding programs for youth and widows.

Jehovah's Witnesses urge breaking confidentiality in serious sin cases
The Sept. 1 Watchtower advises members to disclose serious sins by fellow Witnesses to elders, even risking job loss or legal trouble. It says confrontation should come first, then reporting if unrepentant, with officials defending physicians and lawyers balancing client confidentiality.
