Home again – and pictures finally!
I write now from Lancaster, PA, and just wanted to send a big thank you to everyone who read this blog and those who sent me comments or emails — your support meant a lot.
I had an easy, albeit long, trip home and have spent the last few days sleeping through jet lag and the sad lack of passion fruit. I’m going to put in some photos of my trip, though I’ve been having trouble uploading them so I may split the pictures into 2 posts, enjoy!
On the left, below, is Urugo Rw’Amahoro (Friends Peace House). On the right is myself and my three AVP co-facilitators in Gisenyi (from left: Samuel, Solange, Emily, Theoneste).
Now, below we have the AVP workshop in Gisenyi (for the AGLI workcamp). On the right is a photo of Francine and I cooking the “American” dinner — peeling potatoes in our kitchen.
Look to the next post for a few more pictures, continued!

Welcome home intrepid peace maker! Brave young woman! Spirit led Quaker!
Sounds amazing and I hope we can meet face to face so I can hear all about it.
Hope we can stay in touch.

Emily, I am going to miss you so much this year. I hope you can come visit us, and maybe Ella and I can take a trip up to visit you, too.
