I am getting more and more excited for my time in Rwanda. It is coming up very quickly. As of now I am planning on leaving for Africa in the middle of April, and returning the middle of June. My time there will be spent working on paving the way for a new project being spearheaded by Highlands Church & Food for the Hungry.

The project itself seeks to make major impacts in Northern Rwanda in several specific fields, they are: Leadership/Church Leadership Development, Business Development, Health Care, and Education.

A few days ago a meeting took place that represented the first time the “key players” from both sides of the project gathered around and begin to discuss how the vision could take place. The meeting was led by Tyler McGrath and Dave Chapman, both from Highlands church. Food for the Hungry was represented by Ben Holman, the president of the organization, and Dwight Jackson, the Country Director in Rwanda, as well as several advocates, and staff members.

As part of the meeting I was asked to create an introduction video that summarizes some of our goals as well as the climate and history in Rwanda.

This was my fist time using this video program and the first time I have worked on a project like this. I hope you like it!
