Holly Labar was involved in a missionary endeavor called HopeRwanda (www.hoperwanda.org), facilitated though Hillsong Church in Sydney, Australia. Many different missionary teams were sent out during a 100-day period (April 7-July 15) in an effort to restore hope to a nation torn apart by the 1994 genocide. Holly was one of two Americans chosen to participate with the education team traveling to Rwanda, April 10-26. She went as a high school math teacher to “enable and equip” teachers in Rwanda. Holly reports, “We had almost 180 people born again just through our team alone.”

Cheryl Taylor-Roehl currently lives in Ellensburg, Wash., home of Central Washington University. She says, “It reminds me of college...yet these children look so young and in their own world. I was probably the same. Anyone remember Todd Farley, the mime who came to ORU? I brought him to an ORU chapel service and it was neat [to see] how an arts ministry can affect so many. I was told that particular year the sign-up for off-campus ministries was the highest. (I think Ron Luce was over this program...or was he over the missions department? It hurts to think that far back.) One thing I can’t forget are all the wonderful memories and friends I made. I would like to say thank you. If anyone would like to drop a line, please do so...Blessings.”
