This is the blog for the team from St Mary’s Church, Reigate, who are going out to Burundi, principally to Gitega. We will be supporting the work in the medical centre and we are also going to be spending time with the boys and girls in the two safe homes for street children. This trip is part of the on-going relationship that we have with the project. We are partnering with www.emergepovertyfree.org and African Revival Ministries.

We have arrived in Bujumbura
After many hours travelling, we have finally arrived in Bujumbura. We were warmly greeted at the airport by the smiling faces of Aline, Bosco, Elvis and co.
We are now resting at the KCC in Bujumbura. We have already been struck by the beauty of Burundi and the stark difference between here and the UK.
Hello Burundi Bunch! Found the sheet music I think Dan needs - have sent an email to the KCC. Please can you ask if they would be lovely and print it off? Thanks - and miss you all. Karen
Hey Burundi! I think I am all packed and ready to join the party!!! Peter J I have your chocolate which has already melted once on me! I'm not sure it will be in quite the state you left it in Reigate! I will do my best to keep it out of the sun today! Love love love xxx
