Rwanda by Meg Guillebaud
Meg is the third generation of her family to become a missionary to Rwanda: her grandfather went out from Britain in 1925. Ostensibly the story of her family, this is really a story of two nations. Rwanda and neighbouring Burundi wrestle with centuries-old tribal hatreds. The East African revival, in which Meg's parents were heavily involved, was famed for repentance and reconciliation. But did it paper over deeper divisions?
A vivid and personal account of missionary witness in a land which has known not only the triumphs of faith but also the terrible events of the genocide in 1994 which led to the deaths of some 800,000 peopleI congratulate Meg on her honesty in facing up to the questions that arise from that terrible event. Only the cross can heal those wounds. - Most Rev. Dr George Carey, Archbishop of Canterbury One of the most riveting gospel accounts of our time - utterly compulsive. - Rev. Richard Bewes, Rector of All Souls Church, Langham Place, London Will challenge, inspire, disturb and move you. You won't be the same again! - Lesley Bilinda, author of The Colour of Darkness
A former sergeant in the Metropolitan Police, the Rev. Meg Guillebaud, an Anglican minister, now trains church leaders in Rwanda.
