Kids Small Groups

The focus of today was a cultural immersion experience.  We began with an orientation at the PEACE Plan Offices with sweet Mary.  Lots of great information and questions answered about all things Rwanda.  Then we headed to an anything but Rwandan feeling lunch; Chipotle was basically transplanted here through Meze Fresh.  Yummy!

And then the experiences continued as the team visited a large outdoor market, experiencing the daily bustling life of Rwandans.  Then it was on to the Genocide Memorial to understand the before, during and after of the 1994 genocide.  Hearts were broken as each team member grappled in his/her own way to digest what was seen and heard.  Great debrief time as a team later in the evening.

Finally, we wrapped up the day with two more sessions of Purpose Driven Children's Ministry with another crowd of about 35 church leaders.  Many new faces since we were at a different church at the end of  a work day.  Can't wait for our all-day training to be wrapped up and then applied on Wednesday as it is a national holiday with July 4th's Liberation Day upcoming.

Pray for continued strength, unity and peace amidst and through the team.  God has truly blessed us with a wonderful blend of gifts and talents.  Great things still to come!
