My journey started a week ago today. I can't believe it has only been a week! It has been a busy one. This morning Julie, the American nurse, took me along to the Methodist church about 50 feet from our house. I could not understand the words because everything was in Kinyarwanda, but the singing was beautiful! There were 3 separate choirs, which took turns singing. Interestingly, the children were dismissed to a children's liturgy right before the sermon started, just like at our church at home. Julie is a pediatric nurse and has been here for 3 years. I look forward to hearing more about what brought her here and how she copes with the isolation and high infant mortality rate.

It has been quite a week of travel and new experiences. Thanks for sharing photos of your duplex. Glad you have a private place to regroup and rest.
