Kids Small Groups

After hours and HOURS of traveling the Saddleback Kids 2011 Rwanda PEACE Team officially arrived in Kigali, Rwanda on Tuesday morning around 9:00 am.  They hit their first "obstacle" as 13 bags did not arrive along with the 23 team members. 

However, that seemed like the only hiccup as the team was greeted by our Rwandan friends - Simon, Jean Pierre and Gretienne.  They settled into their hotel, grabbed lunch and headed off to the Genocide Memorial.  Many hearts were broken but more importantly touched/sensitized to what the people of Rwanda experienced in 1994.  Overall, the team has done an outstanding job acclimating as they fought sleep throughout the day and hit the hay early in preparation for a full day of ministry...which will actually kick-off in just a few minutes as it is already Wednesday morning in Rwanda. 
While the prayer support in California hits the hay, rise and shine SK 2011 Rwanda PEACE Team - it is time to do God's work today!  Can't wait to hear the stories of ministry and lives changed...

PS - the luggage was only a temporary obstacle as it already all came in later Tuesday evening.  YAY!!!
