Product Description
by Brigitte Kitenge (Author)
Rwanda in 1994 became a civil war-ravaged land besieged by tribal strife, routine murders, and blatant abuses of power. Twenty-two year old Brigitte Kitenge was a beautiful, highly-educated, happily married young mother with a successful career, a respected husband, and a peaceful, middle-class life. Peacefully celebrating the birth of her second child, she had no idea that April evening would be the last time she would see many of her extended family members, and the end of life as she had known it. Factors beyond her control plunged her family into a fight and ultimately a flight for their lives.
The story of her many near-death experiences, her rescue, and her ultimate journey to America--again, by the merest of chances, will renew your faith in the providence of God and His power to save, not only our lives, but our souls. Brigitte benefitted from the kindness of strangers, and in turn, learned to make her life a benefit for others. Read her improbable and inspiring story and appreciate the daily miracles God works in all of our lives. Brigitte learned, if we will let Him, He will carry us "through it all."
