I think of Rwanda and our time there almost every day. It is amazing that such a short visit has etched feelings and memories so deeply in my mind. I never want to forget this, and I have lots of little reminders in my life - some Rwandan francs in my wallet, a piece of sandstone from the school site on my desk, a basket hanging up at home. When I remember Rwanda my thoughts always begin and end with the children of Ndama, where the Hobsons-sponsored school is being constructed.
It was thrilling today to receive an email containing photographs of the nearly-complete school! We visited quite a few schools in Rwanda and this one is definitely the most beautiful.

| A built-in cabinet inside the school. I am guessing that the rough part of the wall is where the chalkboard will be fastened. |

| The back of the school building... |

| Another view of the front. The school building consists of three classrooms and an office for the staff at the far right. |

| Construction supplies on site. |

I caught my breath when I saw this photo. There in the wall of the school is the block that I made when we visited the school site. I absolutely love this picture.
