about us

Meet the Barihos

Lambert and Catherine Bariho are called to serve the people of Rwanda — ministering to the brokenhearted, equipping churches, and advancing the Kingdom of God in East Africa.

Our Story

Born and raised in Rwanda, Lambert witnessed firsthand the devastation of the 1994 genocide. From the ashes of that tragedy, God planted a seed of calling — to bring healing and hope to a nation still recovering from deep wounds.

Together with his wife Catherine, Lambert has dedicated his life to ministering to the brokenhearted. Through discipleship, prayer ministry, and biblical teaching, they walk alongside communities across Rwanda, helping individuals discover their identity in Christ and the healing power of God's love.

Operating as missionaries through CTEN, the Barihos partner with local churches to train leaders, facilitate healing retreats, and bring the transformative message of Isaiah 61 to those who need it most.

Biblical Foundation

Our ministry is rooted in the truth of God's Word. We believe that Jesus came to heal the brokenhearted and set the captives free. This is the foundation of everything we do.

"He heals the brokenhearted and binds up their wounds."

— Psalm 147:3 (NIV)
