... I came to Rwanda for the first time.
Having already served with International Teams for 9 years and travelled more than 20 countries - some multiple times - and seeing the 'not so nice parts of the world' - it was my first time to Africa.
What I did know is that God had something here for me unlike any other place I had travelled. I had no idea what it was but I knew I had to be open. I definitely didn't think I would end here long term.
Well... ten years later.
International Teams Rwanda is alive and well and moving forward.
Empowering Rwandans for holistic life transformation
Education
Health and Nutrition
Income Generation

As we say... the rest is history.

It is amazing how quickly the years go by! There are minutes and days that sometimes seem to be endless - but in the blink of an eye, whole decades are passed.
Congratulations on a milestone and a journey well-traveled.
