About the Country
Rwanda is one of the African continent’s smallest nations. In the mid 90s, it experienced a devastating genocide that took 800,000 lives. National stability is still challenging this nation. However, education, health and income among its people are steadily improving. It now has one of the fastest growing economies in Africa. Despite this, more than 60% of the population still lives on less than $1.25 a day.
Suffering from the genocide has led many Rwandans to seek faith. Some people have converted to Islam, while others have been open to Christianity. In the past several years, the Church in Rwanda has seen dramatic growth.
Prayer Needs
This month, we ask you to add Rwanda and its people to your prayer list. This proud nation has ongoing political and economic challenges. Due to the genocide, many have turned away from their Christian faith or have been ensnared by false gospel messages. Pray for the families we serve, our staff on the ground and that true gospel seeds can be planted in the hearts of Rwandans.
