Spending a few moments this morning writing to Mukashyaka, our sponsored child from Rwanda. Giving monies each month is easy, but writing is hard for me. I know little of her country outside of the genocide. And, because she is just a child it's not a subject to write about. While searching the internet for info on Mookie's country I came across this video interview of author Immaculee Ilibagiza and listened to this young woman tell of how she was able to experience forgiveness.
My dear friend Amy loaned me Immaculee's book entitled, Left to Tell: Discovering God Amidst the Rwandan Holocaust. I pray that Mukashyaka's Rwanda is very different today than it was then. David and I are thankful we're able to have a very small part in her life.
