Update from the Team in Rwanda! Weve been astonished at our warm welcome here in Kibali. Weve had some great opportunities to interact with the people - attending church service, reading to the children the Byumba schools, and visiting private homes of the people in Kibali Parish. One highlight was working alongside the community on Umuganda Day. We carried mud bricks, shoveled dirt, and slung mud mortar to help complete a new house for a single mother and her two children. One person told us that by doing that, we had become part of the history of that community. Now that woman would say, Do you know who helped build my house? Muzungus (white people) helped build my house! It has been an honor to become acquainted with our brothers and sisters in Kibali Parish. They have welcomed us with love. Joe and Gwen Westerlund
