our journey to rwanda....

an opportunity presented itself and we decided to follow where God was leading - rwanda, a land of a thousand hills. a land where almost 1,000,000 were massacred in 100 days in 1994, a land where orphans abound.

our prayer is that God will use this trip to show us many things - but mainly Himself and how we can help the children.

our time will be spent primarily serving in orphanages. we can hardly wait to get there.

p.s. first time readers -- please read the first blog entry and listen to the song playing :)

pictures of CALM kids

to view the pictures of the CALM kids, click (to see pictures larger, click on any picture) HERE

i tried hard to reduce the number of pictures but just couldn't.

to organize the pajamas/toys you bought for 'your' child, i put the picture sheet you signed into each sack so i would know who had what. good concept except i didn't make copies and so now i don't know who had who. i had planned to give each of you a photo thank you. so much for that idea.

there are 6 or 7 of the older kids that we didn't get to meet because they go to school at sonrise and come back to the orphanage only on school breaks. no peace, pammie :( BUT chantal and her incredible daughter, eric, are allowed to visit once a month. they were going the saturday we were there. when we saw them the following monday, they had given them their gifts and taken pictures! i should receive them any day. i am as excited to 'meet' them as you are!!!
