World Relief!

So Tuesday was our first meeting with an NGO here in Rwanda, and we had the best meeting with World Relief! We got to meet with two guys, Phil Smith and Myal Green about the ministry that World Relief does here and with churches back in the United States. It was so exciting to hear all that they are doing and their strategy and philosophy. I felt like an 8th grade girl with my first boy crush.
It was so incredibly uplifting to hear about the way they are working here. Their strategy is to empower the local church to serve the needs of their people. I was just enthralled to listen to Myal and Phil talk about their programs and the impact that they have had on the community. I'll write more about them coming soon- I think we're going to visit one of their fields on Monday. I'm so excited!
