We are currently working on our support letter. Although Tom will be receiving a small salary from the Rwandan Government and we will be using our savings, we still need to raise about $4,000 each month for our living expenses. This will cover our basic food and utility costs, along with health care insurance (including emergency medical evacuation insurance) and school costs. Labor costs are fairly low in Kigali but products and food are actually relatively expensive because most of there products are imported by air. There are no ports, rail or even good roads into the country.
Tom will also be leaving his job in Rancho Santa Margarita in order to go to Rwanda. This 14 month trip is certainly stretching our faith!
We are excited to be on our way!
