New Friends from Rwanda
We have been officially matched up through International Friendship Outreach. Our student is Jean De Dieu (in white shirt), here on scholarship from Rwanda. He is 20 years old and so friendly! When we went to meet him, we also met two friends of his, Velence (in khaki) and Prosper (in blue). We had a picnic packed and baseball tickets to see the Travelers play, so we loaded up in the car and all 8 of us spent the afternoon and evening talking and getting to know each other. I am so thankful to have met them. They are so kind, so inquisitive and so interested in knowing more about everything. I've posted a picture of the three of them with Craig and the boys. We enjoyed many laughs as we tried to communicate with our nonexistent french skills and their beginner english vocabulary. We really had a great time~
