It is powerful, beautiful, heart wrenching, inspiring, convicting.<br /><br /> My husband and I went to Rwanda last February for the first time. My heart has been changed forever. In 1989 we began sponsoring a child in Rwanda who is believed to have been killed during the genocide in 1994. While sponsoring her, we had hoped to visit her one day. Instead last year we visited many genocide memorial sites and witnessed the blood stains on many church walls where so many died. Our hearts were broken. And yet, the children of Rwanda smile. They play, they dance, they sing with a resilience uncommon to American children. <br /><br />Since our trip last February, I have maintained several contacts with young college aged students. One, in particular, is a young filmmaker who recently returned for Germany where he attended debuted his film at an international festival. It was very well received. He is currently trying to secure funding for a documentary. Do you have any interest in or know anyone who could help fund this project? i told him I would try and help find some contacts for him.<br />Laura King<br />llking6@gmail.comAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04979232874759342989noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7336773065190388825.post-35396669806212789542010-03-05T19:51:39.126-06:002010-03-05T19:51:39.126-06:00I'm so glad that you have the opportunity to h...I'm so glad that you have the opportunity to help!

Glad to hear that you minister over there in Rwanda--so badly needed. Please keep posting.<br /><br />Take care and God bless!<br /><br />Tracy L.
