520 |a Protestant pastors in Zaire often find themselves in a difficult position. They generally enjoy a fair amount of respect and status as educated leaders but receive little compensation for their efforts. The way in which religious professionals in both mission-connected and independent churches resolve their struggle for an adequate livelihood will be a determining factor in the future shape of church institutions in Africa. This paper examines this issues on the basis of a case study of two Baptist church communities in the Kivu region of eastern Zaire. Particular attention is paid to missionary attitudes, examples, and teachings, the broader social transformation of the society in which a religious professional class has emerged, the control missions had over the educational road to upward mobility into the professional class, the struggle on the part of Africans to overcome this foreign domination, and the ongoing difficulties confronting this new class.
