Our Time in Rwanda

We had such a blessed time in the Land of a Thousand Hills although I think they underestimated the number of hills, it’s more like a million! The country side is beautiful with constant rolling hills covered with home sites with small terraced farm plots growing everything they eat from rice to cauliflower, potatoes, beans, cassava, maize and bananas.

We visited 4 churches in western Rwanda that have existing CR ministries. They have begun with Large Group meetings. Two of the churches are ready to begin step study groups and we trained them to do that.

We heard testimonies of healing, restoration and changed lives. CR ministries are growing in size and have expanded to 6 churches.

We attended church service on Sunday in Kigali at a church that is interested in starting CR. We met with their Bishop about how to move forward. We are praying about timing for the next trip and when to train his church leaders.

We can't wait to see what God does in this country and the hearts of the beautiful people here through Celebrate Recovery.
