R is for . . .

Rwanda

A member of my church (Hello, Liberty!) is in Rwanda with a group conducting Vacation Bible School and also instructing local teachers so that they can "d-i-y" next time. Read more here.

In a lesson about being made in the image of God, the children looked at their own images in a mirror, something most of them had never done before. 

Part of the daily routine is to serve each child an egg. Mission leaders estimated they'd need 3,000 for the week, but as the children kept pouring in, 2,000 eggs were served the first day!

R is for Redeemer.
