The analysis Thierry Bahizi offers here arises from a holistic viewpoint, including not only the variable of physical, also called material, poverty, but also its spiritual side. Along its pages, the reader is going to find a complete relation of the multiple faces of poverty in the urban nuclei of Burundi, how the local Churches and Parishes can and, in fact, do tackle the situation, and the essential conclusion on the importance of the spiritual work for pauperized collectives.1 online resource (233 pages)eng2023 Globethics PublicationsAttribution-NonCommercial-NoDerivatives 4.0 Internationalhttp://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/4.0/urbanizationmegacitiesAfricaurban church workurban missionurban povertymissionary workchurch work with the poorAnglican churchesBujumbura, BurundiMissiologyAfrican theologiesChristian denominationsAnglicanPractical theologyBook
