School

Now that summer is past we are in full swing into our school schedule.The kids are attending KICS which stands for Kigali International Community School along with 200 other students. It is about 20 minutes from our home, they teach from an American curriculum and the students are from all over the world. A few days before school started. I (Lori) was asked to teach 3rd grade until the regular teacher arrives later in October. I have students from England, Swedan, Italy, Holland, Russia, Rwandan, Uganda and the Philippines. I am enjoying my students and this experience has renewed my love for teaching. Since it is a Christian school we can openly talk about God and pray daily. The 3rd day of school two of the children asked about the existance of God and about evolution. They said their parents did not believe in God. What a great opportunity I have to share from the Bible and to show the love of Jesus to these wonderful children. Hannah and Zack are enjoying their school experience as well. They have made friends with many students and they like their teachers. We are very proud at how well they have adjusted to their new school and to life in Rwanda!
