"Insert amazing picture here"
We're back home now! After 24+ hours of international travel, we're home and starting into American life again, ready or not.
Rob picked us up from the Airport in DC on Sonday afternoon and we had a fun time journeying to Gettysburg for our planned recovery time. It was difficult to have Rob drop me off and then allow him to drive away instead of taking me with him. Soon I was too homesick for my family that I couldn't focus on anything but them, so Rob came back early into the plans to pick me up and take us both to two adorable little boys! Cody Shawn has grown! Gavin is taller and speaking so well! Cody didn't remember me at first, or he was shy of me, one or the other, but after 24 hours both boys were in the highest spirits enjoying their parents again. I found myself thinking often, what would they have thought of Rwanda? They would've loved it!
I'm left with so much information and not enough schedulable time to unload it. I am back in the states with new perspective on Rwanda and I think I have an idea on how to introduce her to others here in the States. Rwanda is a selfless, growing ecconomy, a home for so many who are holding on to hope and joy even though they tangibly have very little, they have so much to gain and they are moving in the direction of obtaining. If any of you would have seen/heard what we had the great honor of being in the midst of, you would have seen for yourself just what God can do to restore a people once broken and looking forward to a hope for their children. He IS mighty to save and I can't wait to tell you how we've seen it happening in front of us through the existing ministries of Hope International and Compassion International!!
The time is coming to inform and encourage and I can't wait to be a part of it in whatever ways are available!
Thank you so much, everyone, for praying and being a part of the ministry of The Rwanda Project while we were in Rwanda. Please keep up here and continue to pray as the ministry moves forward!
With adoration and thanks,
Joyous
