Amy, Kelly, Ann and Caitlin here.
Good news…………. We’re getting married!!!!
Well, not just yet….. thanks to a powerful prayer from a woman named Peace and the rest of the Inyakurama women hopefully it’ll be soon! A picture’s worth a thousand words – boy, if you could of seen the faces of the women who were so surprised when they found out that only one person in our group is married. They felt the immediate need to jump up out of their seats and pray for us single girls to find good husbands. How awesome!
Prayer Request……..
For all you moms, don’t worry about:
the lack of seat belts in our “van cruiser”, the speed at which we’ve been driving (it’s in kilometers, we don’t know the difference anyway!) down the middle of a pot hole-filled REALLY curvy mountainous road while trying to avoid school children in uniforms, pedestrians carrying their day’s work balanced on their heads, and bicyclists hauling loads of water. BUT…… we are using our antimicrobial hand sanitizer and travel toilet paper/Kleenex for unexpected pit stops…… and when we say “pit” stops, we mean PIT stops. (pit\pit – n: a hole, shaft, or cavity in the ground The Merriam-Webster Dictionary)
We would like to give a special shout out to our amazing 6’ 4” interpreter Herve, who has been so patient and kind by answering our nonstop questions, while crunched in the back of our “van cruiser” with the eight of us – so chatty and giggly.
Alright, more to come….. Off to met the gorillas tomorrow, much love - Peace out!
PS- We land at Dulles at 8am on Sunday, June 22nd. This would be a PERFECT time to get the ball rolling if there’s any single gentlemen you want us to meet…. Especially since we’ll be looking so H-O-T after 24 hours of travel!

Hi Stacey & Rwanda 2008 team,
Keep the updates coming! It sounds like you all are off to a great start.
Lots of love,

Loving all the stories and can't wait to see the pictures. And yes, if God decides to answer the women's prayers for husbands at the source there in Rwanda, I do travel internationally to photograph weddings. It was a long flight, surely one of you talked to a member of the soccer team :) The Greisdorf Girls (and Guy) are keeping you in prayer!
