25 Years Ago Today
25 years. 25 years today.
April 7, 2019 - a day set aside by the United Nations to mark the 25th anniversary of the Rwandan Genocide.
Most of us, myself included, don't think about this horrific event on a regular basis. But for survivors? It doesn't seem so long ago at all.
So how do we recognize and remember this event, for the sake of our brothers and sisters around the world? How do we facilitate healing?
Thankfully, many organizations, including Compassion Canada, is participating today, April 7, by lifting up the inspiring example of how the Church, Christians, Rwandan survivors, and government, have been working diligently and intentionally to rebuild.
For a thought-provoking journey remembering this event, check out Compassion Canada's post. And let's continue to pray for peace and love to grow as we remember this tragic event.
