I truly love the people out in the villages of Rwanda. They are honest, hard working people, most are very poor and that is hard to see. It can be overwhelming to look upon all that poverty and feel so helpless. But once in while the Holy Spirit prompts your heart to help one little starfish back to the sea.
I would like to to meet Erick. What a great attitude from this little guy. Don't look at his clothes or the mud hut he lives in, look at that smile. Does he touch your heart? If your reading this then you must be alive and breathing. Of course there are thousands in like situations, but there is only one Erick.
Erick and others like him are the reason Beverly and I listened to Gods call for our lives to come to Rwanda. Please go to the Rafiki web site (www.rafiki-foundation.org) and look at those precious children. They looked like Erick before the Lord bought them to Rafiki where they are finding a place to live, grow and learn. We have children here at our village that need sponors, will you answer Gods call?
