Last Week


Sorry for the lack of posts recently. I did want to post one last time before boarding a plane and returning to Vancouver. This is going to be a small update even though there has been lots going on.

This past weekend I began saying my goodbyes. I spent a lovely weekend in Musanze. It was great to catch up with my Rwandan family. The kids have grown so much in the past few months I barely recognized them. Saturday I finally went to check out the caves/tunnel which turned in to a bit of an adventure as it has rained earlier that day.

Sunday I attended my last home group church meeting. This group has been incredibly supportive and inspiring and I will miss their words of wisdom when I go.

My next few days will be filled with last minute sewing projects and a few more goodbyes. Currently it is pouring rain which is going to make moving about Kigali challenging. Motos tend to hid out in gas station when it rains. Let’s hope it clears up every once in a while so I can go out.

While it has been challenging to say goodbyes to my community here as I have very much enjoyed my time in Rwanda and the relationships that have developed; I am looking forward to catching up with family and friends in the Vancouver area over the next few weeks.

Thanks to everyone who supported me over the past few months, it has meant the world to me to know I have an encouraging community back home.
