It is with heavy hearts that we wrapped up our final day of ministry here in the Land of a Thousand Hills. And what a special day it was as we ministered alongside our brothers and sisters from Christ Gospel Fellowship. The morning began with 5 different teams visiting 2-3 homes nearby CGF Kimironko. The purpose was to check-in and see how the sponsored children are doing. What a special treat to spend some quality time with Rwandan families.
After a hearty lunch back at the guesthouse, the team was ready to end their time in Rwanda with a good old-fashioned football game. The Rwandan teens, who were part of a league coached by a CGF member, were very kind in including Team Saddleback Muzungus in their drills, warm-ups and then a small scrimmage. Everyone had a blast and got a good workout in to burn the endless carbs from the last week.
The hardest part of today was saying our good-byes to our driver, translators and friends. We were truly blessed with some special quality time with them all over dinner and affirming them briefly. We are eternally grateful for these lifelong relationships with Denis, Gratien, Rachel, Simon, Christian and Jean-Paul. Looking forward to future adventures with these guys in Rwanda.
As we prepare to enter into our debrief process, this will be the final post before take-off homeward bound on Wednesday 7/8. We'll keep you posted on our successful departure as we begin the LONG journey home. Until then, pray for this debrief process as it is a critical time for the team to discuss, affirm and encourage one another. Pray that each team member walks away transformed by what they saw, heard, experienced and felt over the last 12 days.
