Today was the teams first Sunday in Rwanda and we were able to go to a Foursquare church pastor-ed by Pastor Jerome, a former prisoner who now has a church of his own and who is a partner with IRM.
Following the service we went to Jerome's home to have lunch with him, his family and the church family.

It was a great service with villagers and released inmates, who stood in church and told of their genocide murder crimes and asked for forgiveness. These men were in Butari Prison for 15 to 17 years are now pastors themselves and they told of the work God and IRM had done in their lives.
The team is getting over their jet-lag, getting their "sea legs" under them and preparing to to to Mpanga Prison tomorrow.

It's 11 pm and time for bed. I am sorry this is short but after preaching a full hour today I am so very tired.
Thank you for continuing to pray for us.
