In Dec 2006 two regional chiefs from opposite sides of the conflict met in a workshop. There they were reconciled together at the cross. As a result they called Daniel, saying that if they could be reconciled, why not all the regional chiefs? The war would then end! Would the team be willing to conduct the workshop for all the regional chiefs? They could also invite heads of police, army and local government, as well as some pastors. The team buy now were full of faith as they had seen the wonderful works of God, and agreed. They requested that the workshop be held in the still standing church in the ruined town of Nyankunde.
This workshop took place in March 2007 and included the 24 regional chiefs of the southern part of Ituri. Armed bodyguards surrounded the church as together the chiefs and other leaders took the sins and suffering of their tribes to the cross. On the third day, there was a profound repentance time which ended in the chiefs holding hands in a circle, pled
ging friendship from then on. The war in Ituri stopped the following week.
