Trip to the Airport

We are sitting at the airport at Bouron Cafe waiting for Andria's long-time friend Margaret Larson to arrive. It is always a little surreal coming to Kigali and the airport. For one thing, Kigali is so different than the rest of Rwanda. It is like the modern world compared to Little House on the Prairie. You see fashion and tall business buildings in the city. In the airport I am looking around and see well dressed people everywhere. There are many muzungo's (white people) waiting like we are to pick up someone that has arrived on Brussels Air. Andria just enjoyed a pinene sandwich and some REAL ice cream at the famous Bourbon Cafe. Again it is very different to what we find in Gitarama.

We are very excited to have Margaret Larson with us for the next 7 days. Her family has their own nonprofit "Micah Global Foundation" as they dedicated themselves to being a "missional family". The whole family, their kids are grown, travel the world and help bring the love of Jesus to many. We hope that we can make a good connection with Margaret and that she will feel "called" to make many more trips back to Rwanda. This is a scouting trip for her to see if she could bring teams next time.
