This is a photograph of an unidentified North American church, probably taken during the early 1960s. It shows a large brick building with an overhang in front of the door. Long narrow windows with panes of colored glass flank the door and run along the side of the church. A small, darker building with arched (church style) windows is located very close beside it.
This photograph shows the congregation of the Mfila Parish after the church service. In 1990, Mfila Parish was one of the larger of Kinshasa's 25+ congregations. Mfila has a solid concrete structure and electricity, although 10 yards behind the camera was a deep ravine caused by erosion, which was threatening to swallow the church building.

There are two sets of doors visible. There is a small covered area marking the main entrance. Ginger bread designs decorate the gables and the roof.
