Sister Parish in Kibali, Rwanda Sister Parish in Kibali, Rwanda

Video message from Pastor Robert and Chantal .
	IAC has a sister parish relationship with the Kibali Sub-Parish in Kibali, Byumba, Rwanda. The Kibali Sub-Parish is one of 31 parishes and 7 Sub-Parishes which compose Byumba Diocese located in the North of Rwanda. The Kibali Sub-Parish is young, it was established in November 2005. The congregation of Kibali is mostly femele and more of them are widows, and there are also many orhans. 99 % of the congregation "lives on peasant agriculture."
The Kibali Sub-Parish has four village congregations. There are 726 people who worship at these four congregations. Once a month, they all gather to worship as the whole parish -- and they worship in the open air.
	Teams from IAC have visited and worshiped with our sister parish since 2007. Our purpose has been to build the relationship, and the Lord has woven our hearts together.
The vision of the Diocese is to establish the church as the center of integrated community development: including a health center /clinic, primary and and secondary schools, and economic development (agriculture and livestock to sustain poor families)

Compassion works through the local church to minister to children who live in extreme poverty. For just $32 a month you can provide for a specific child's physical, spiritual, economic and social needs. Best of all, you can share Christ's love by praying for the child that you sponsor, by exchanging letters with the child, and by even meeting the child. Please see Regina Hopewell for information on how to sponsor a child. Email Regina or call 719 488-8128 for information.
