I have just come back from Rwanda and it was the first time that I have been such a long time in my own motherland; for 3months, because as a child I grew up as a refugee in Uganda. I was also able to visit where I come from and where I was born. Two years ago I had two strokes in my brain. Then when the planned moment came that I had to go to Rwanda, my revalidation doctor and physiotherapist advised me to take the opportunity.They said; another environment and climate could help me to recover, and it worked! I am healing fast.

Our motorbike project has become stable and productive. Our boys, (from the school project when they were children) the young men riding them, are happy progressing and becoming responsible citizens. Some are even married and are able to provide for their families. They asked me sincerely to thank you on their behalf. The only concern about this project was the security of the motorbikes as sometimes they were stolen. But we are introducing GPS systems that will help us to follow the bikes and will help the police to find stolen motorbikes. This costs 60 euro per motorbike. I want to thank Foundation KOOK for their continued support in this area.

It is necessary to raise the level of professionalism of the sewing school. To realize this we need to make adjustments in the building and we need to buy some special sewing machines. We will make it possible to give our students the kind of up to date education to help them keep up with the market when they graduate. We will sell what they make during their training to generate some income that can help the sewing school and the students. We need six different types of sewing machines and a second teacher besides the one we already have.

In the picture above is Pastor Faustin and part of the 12 children of the new school project. It is doing very well and the children in this project are happy as they tell me that through this kindness they see that the people who care for them really love them too. Ilse van Dijk thanks again for initiating this project. We also thank the sponsors of this project. The children are grateful and also their parents and families or friends who take care of them. The appointment to help these children ends with 2020, but then they haven't finished their studying. In due time we shall inform you about the future of these children.

Testimony of Ingabire Yvette 15yrs, (3rd from the right in the picture)

My father divorced with my mother and she is handcapped with the left hand. After their separation, life became very hard, laborious and miserable. My mother engaged in and did prostitution openly. By the God’s Grace she got saved. We are now members of this church, and I also joined the children’s choir. By encountering and interacting with different people, I started to gain hope for life. Even your support to our favour kept moving. My mother sells small edible products on a basket hawking around the surbs and in the out skirts of the city. It makes her able to pay the house rent monthly and feed us no matter how little it appears to be. Please pray for us. I am happy. Your friend daughter.
