We shared our stories today and tonight with our community.
Thanks to All who came and listened and watched. We really believe The Lord blessed us so very much on this trip and look forward to our continued relationship with the people of Rwanda.
Murakoze ... Thank You!!!!

Coming Home
It was sad leaving Rwanda on Monday. We had all received so many blessings on this trip and experienced so many emotions. We will never forget the friends we've made and the lives we've touched but most importantly, how our friends have blessed each of us.
Thank you to all who have followed us and we look forward to sharing our experience and the thousands (ok, we'll try keep it to hundreds) of pictures, videos, memories and the many moments of blessings, faith and connection with our Lord and the wonderful people of Rwanda.
God Bless

Visiting their sponsored Compassion International child
On Sunday Tim and Helena headed back to Kigali early so they could meet with their Compassion child. Their family has been sponsoring her for 7-8 years.
Yvonne has a twin sister also sponsored (Yvette). They live with their grandmother in a very small three room home with a dirt floor in Kigali.
Compassion works in 28 developing counties with high poverty rates around the world. In Rwanda they have about 250 offices across the country which each look after 230-300 children. They provide schooling, medical support, training and education as well as a community resource and a place for kids to gather on Saturdays. There are 63,000 Children in Rwanda that are part of the Compassion program but only 70% of them have a sponsor.
1. Tim, Yvonne, Helena and Yvette with the local compassion team behind
2. Yvette, Helena, Tim, Yvonne, Adeloe (their grandmother)
3&4. Giving and receiving gifts from Yvonne, Yvette and their grandmother.
One of the gifts we brought was a bible for both Yvonne and Yvette. Yvette had been praying for a bible for some time. God is good.

Visiting Kibogora Hospital and Dr Tim Berg and Family
We met Dr Tim Berg and family who joined us at the service, ate lunch with us and took us on a tour of the hospital in Kibogora where we delivered medical supplies that were donated by a number of different doctors, nurses and individuals back home. Tim has been serving at the hospital since last July.
Looking sharp
Tim and Helena supported the local business in Cyangugu in order to have a nice Sunday outfit.
