A Note for New Readers

Urukundo Village is an independent home for Rwandan children created and funded through Hope Made Real and its incredibly kind donors. We are not funded by any particular denomination or organization and welcome all who seek to help the children of Rwanda and create a better world not just for a child, but for us all.

Team Visit

We welcomed our second team from Wesley UMC in Bloomsburg, Pa. Some members of the first team in 2008 returned and were startled by the progress made in little over a year..
This team consisted of 3 adults and 6 young people. Their Building project was to help construct a protecting wall for the soccer field. They did camp projects crafts, games and a music camp for the kids. They leave July 2nd. The kids and I will hate to see them go.
Included in this team was Ed Keller the International Board President of Hope Made Real and his wife Lisa and sons Nathan and Nicholas. We were honored by their visit.

While leading a mission team to Urukundo Home for Children in Rwanda Africa, DR Ed Keller presented Mama Arlene with the Bishop Frederick Wertz award for outstanding service in the faith. This award is presented each year to one person by Lycoming College, Williamsport, Pa. The award was presented to Dr Patricia Brown in the absence of her mother at the Central Pa annual conference of the United Methodist Church.

This choir needs a name. Suggestions requested.
