Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. I've been alternately sighing and crying and whooping and cheering over these photos. The 100 pairs of shoes YOU purchased for our friends in Rwanda were safely hauled through 20 hours of planes and cars and buses. These photos make me so happy. I love seeing friends of mine serve and love each other. Next time I hear about how all men hate women and we'll never be able to get along between people of different backgrounds I'm going to remember this photo. The truth is love wins. Every time. Your investment made a difference. $15 for a pair of shoes can change a life. Look at these kiddos in school uniforms. And new shoes. My friend told me a few days after the great shoe fitting they saw this little guy in a pair of your shoes. He's a border kid. His mama crosses the border from Rwanda into the Congo to work. Used to be she could take him with her. A couple of years ago the laws changed. Now kids have to have paperwork to cross borders. Its a good law to stop human trafficking. But the unintended consequence is now this little guy and kids just like him have to stay behind by themselves when mom goes off to work. Not ideal. But its work or don't eat so off mom goes. The local school started a preschool for the border kids. And these kiddos have new shoes because of your love. Isn't this too fun??? ![]() Thank you again.
