The first visitors in Urukundo’s new residence were Margie and Bruce Krogh from Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, USA. They are former residents of Kigali, Rwanda, and friends to Urukundo Village and Learning Center.
Arriving on a Saturday evening, Bruce was the logical speaker for the Sunday morning service. Divine (one of my university graduates) acted as a translator in both English and Kinyarwanda.

The women’s choir sang and danced praises.
Pastor Yves and Bruce served communion.
The congregation was so pleased to have these special visitors.
On Monday, the Kroghs visited the school.
Margie and Bruce got acquainted with new headmaster Viateur.
Visiting the classrooms was on the agenda.
Witnessing a reading group in the library proved to be a special event.
Margie's passion is the music program at Urukundo Learning Center. She has long been a monthly contributor supporting music for kids.
Emmanuel, head of the music program, gives Margie some pointers.
The violin section and the chorus entertained our guests.
Not to be outdone, the guitars, the drums and keyboards joined in. They presented quite a concert.
Truly it was the highlight of Margie’s visit.
I was so excited to see them when they came that I forgot the camera. No incoming photo. I decided to get a photo as they were leaving after their visit. OK, so it is a bit in reverse. Not the usual. They have promised to return before going back to the USA. I look forward to that visit.
