Elsie Anne McKee

McKee was born and reared in what is now the Democratic Republic of Congo, a heritage which has formed her perspective on the world church, including the ways that the Reformed tradition has taken shape in at least one part of the Global South. Alongside teaching and research, McKee is involved in a number of non-profits which support education, medical work, and especially issues of gender and justice in Congo. She is the founder of Woman, Cradle of Abundance, Inc. (FEBA, Inc.), and has recently assisted the founder of the Congo non-profit, Femme, Berceau de l’Abondance, in publishing her autobiography: Cradling Abundance. One African Christian’s Story of Empowering Women and Fighting Systemic Poverty, by Monique Misenga Mukuna with Elsie Tshimunyi McKee (IVP Academic, 2021). (Tshimunyi is McKee’s baptismal name.)
