The time in Rwanda was really good. We held 2 CR seminars, 1 in Muhanga District and another in Karongi District for churches that have previously attended CR training seminars. They are progressing well in starting CR and people are beginning to feel safe to open up and talk about some hurts in their lives for the first time. It is a slow process because the people of Rwanda have been through so much pain, it is hard to even comprehend. 1,000,000 people were killed in 100 days during the 1994 genocide. Everyone in the country was affected by it one way or another.
CR is starting in Rwanda with Large Group meetings to give people a chance to think about their own lives. They will gradually add Open Share groups as people feel safer to talk to one another. Later they will add Step Study groups.
Both the Leader's Guides and Participant's Guides have been published in their local language of Kinyarwanda.
Please pray for the people of Rwanda as they go forward with CR. Pray for the leader's of these new CR ministries. Pray for God's plans for future trainings and timing, possibly in September.
