Once a month on a Saturday morning, all Rwandans take part in a Community service event. With Pastor Paul, we were able to share in preparing the ground for a new elementary school. That day we were also able to attend the distribution of the goats through the Healthy Mum’s Project.
The goats produce manure which is used by the mums as fertilizer to produce better kitchen gardens to feed their children.

Many agencies are involved in helping rebuild Rwanda. We don’t often hear the good news stories.

Dancilla the Healthy Mums Project Nurse has done an amazing job improving the health of the Kigeme mums. There is a short film ‘Mothers of Kigeme’ you can watch online about this project.

You can play your part in helping supply goats for Kigeme mums through the Healthy Mums Project.
Mothers are also being taught how to do microbusinesses through training in sowing.
Pastor Paul took us to the Kikongoro Parish Guest House where many of our Embrace Rwanda team members stayed.
The Guest House in Kikongoro is new and well-laid out.
We visited All Saints Church in Kikongoro where Pastor Assiel looks after 800+ lively Anglicans.

During our visit to Kikongoro, Pastor Paul enabled us to find a shop where we purchased two sets of guitar strings, which really helped the music practices at the Kigeme Cathedral.
