Our Trip to Gitega!

This past weekend, we had a great time with the people of Gitega sharing the love of God and bringing classes of tooth brushing and hygiene for the children! Many may assume that all people know how to brush their teeth and to keep good hygiene... surprisingly some children in the villages don't even own a tooth brush... let alone know how to use it. We would like to extend a humble thanks to Hope Church back in the US for being one of many who have given donations of toothbrushes and toothpaste among other things to help us reach out to these children and show them "we care". When we show we are concerned about the Burundian people and their bodies... and the tooth aches that they so often have, it shows them that they haven't been forgotten in the midst of the cruel circumstances that they have fallen victim to. Thank you to all who have made this possible, truly without your support we wouldn't be as effective as we have been able to be. Together we can help change this nation; one village, one family and one child at a time. Make a difference today.
