YL in Africa...
Lately God has been laying on my heart the teenagers of Rwanda. Many of them have lost parents in the war/ genocide and are currently the head of their households. Many of them have been orphaned and abandoned. People often talk about how young the people of Rwanda are mainly because many of the adults and elderly were killed in the war. It is true, the main population of Rwanda is young, they are the survivors. Young Life is in most countries in Central/ Eastern Africa, all except for Rwanda right now. Interestingly enough, the President of Rwanda met with Denny Ryberg about a month ago and gave him PERMISSION to bring Young Life to the country of Rwanda! Can you imagine a President of a country asking you to share Christ with the country he oversees? People are already praying about all of this. Please partner with me in praying for not just the people of Rwanda, but for the teenagers specifically. They are the next generation that has the ability to continue to change the pain and past of Rwanda. They have the ability to take the pain and make it into something great and good. Please pray that God would bring workers here to reach out to them and to share his good news with them. Please pray that the teenagers of Rwanda would be apart of making Rwanda a light in the midst of darkness. God is moving here, God is good, God is doing a great work in Rwanda... Please pray for the Lord to open up and bring Young life here... http://sites.younglife.org/sites/Africa/default.aspx
