Summer 2017
So many great, hard, and exciting things have been happening the last few months. We had a great visit home to the US for a couple months (Chad traveled back and forth a bit) for a time of refreshment and staying in one place since we've traveled so much this year. We are thankful we could spend time with Chad's family as well as mine. Here is an overview of the work that has been taking place this summer.
Shema and Theoneste have just finished their 2nd term of Kigali Christian School and are on a 3 week break at home in Musanze. We haven't had a chance to see them since we've been back, but we look forward to traveling up north soon to visit. We just had lunch with Isaac a couple days ago. It was great to see him and how well he's doing. He has a sponsor helping him go to counseling (which we are so grateful for!) and has been attending the local public school. He said he's really enjoying school and loves computer class. Thank you for continuing to pray for them!
Pastor Training will continue again in September. Please pray with us as the Global Training Network trainers prepare. Also, please pray for the hearts of the 25 local pastors and leaders and that God would prepare them to learn more about Him.
Rwaza-Muko Hydropower Project is plugging along! So much construction has happened this year; it's amazing. It has been a great opportunity to build relationships with so many people in different aspects of government as well as local people on the ground. We are thankful to be a part of an exciting project that is going to make a difference in many people's lives. In June an official ground breaking ceremony was held. The NewTimes Rwanda has an article here (http://globaltrainingnetwork.us4.list-manage.com/track/click?u=04b40ec0ddbab4d88ad9b8e08&id=1a79b46a80&e=faabd7d0ee) about the project. The project is due to be up and running July of 2018!
Progress on the intake
Rwanda will be holding their presidential election August 4th. Paul Kagame will be running for his 3rd term and is highly favored. He has done great things over his 14 years (2 terms) already. Please pray for peace for the country during this time.
One last little announcement; Olive and Heidi will be welcoming another SISTER this November! We are excited to add another little one to our family. The girls and I will travel back to Arizona mid October to prepare for the baby and Chad will follow at the beginning of November.
It's a girl!
Thank you for continuing to support the ministry taking place here in Rwanda. We are thankful for all your prayers and encouragement!
In Christ,
Chad, Kortney, Olive, Heidi, and Baby B
