Pastor Alexi is a United Methodist Church pastor from the Gisenyi area of Northern Rwanda.I have known Pastor Alexi and his family and was able to give them a safe haven when their lives were in danger. Pastor Alexi just achieved his master’s in theology.
Alexi introduced Bill Graf to the Urukundo Foundation in 2007. Bill was a witness – along with Marilyn Ely (now Hope Made Real International Board treasurer) – to our first purchase of land in Gitarama (now Muhanga). Bill is an attorney and lives in Colorado, USA. Urukundo Village and Learning Center is on his agenda each time he returns to Rwanda. While he was a regular visitor for many years, Covid-19 interfered with his usual schedule of visits. I am so happy to have Bill and Pastor Alexi back at Urukundo. Both men are part of Urkundo’s history.
