Grace Rwanda is out in the community this spring networking and sharing the news of our work with like-minded humanitarians.
In February, we participated in Missions Fest Vancouver, educating attendees about our literacy projects in Rwanda and seeking supporters.
On May 22, the Grace Rwanda team is travelling to Vancouver Island to participate in the third annual Powell River Missions Fest at the Evangel Church. The theme for the event is “Local Vision for Global Missions,” which is an excellent fit for our work and interests.
We’ll be learning from and networking with more than a dozen other B.C. based charitable organizations working in the missions field and on humanitarian causes. Learn more at PowellRiverMissionsFest.com.

Mission accomplished! Grace Rwanda was at Missions Fest Vancouver earlier this month and made a real impact!
We connected with people from all over B.C., even Washington and Rwanda, and shared news of our literacy work for Rwandan youth.
Elizabeth also gave a very well-received hour-long seminar on genocide, forgiveness and reconciliation.
We were impressed with the heart people had for our cause and amazed at the consistent interest people who visited our booth had in Rwanda and its future. We made great connections, gave out Rwandan crafts, and held a gift basket giveaway!
We’d like to thank all our volunteers, especially Janis and Ray Martyn for all their help making Missions Fest a success.
We hope to take our message on the road to the next Missions Fest Alberta in Edmonton later this February to keep spreading the word.
