The last few weeks we have been busy preparing for and
participating in the African Leadership Exchange (ALE). This is a CBM initiative which is bringing
together four key leaders from each of our East African partners—ACC&S
(Kenya), AEBR (Rwanda), CBCA (DRCongo) and FEBAC (South Sudan). Each time they gather, it is a time of learning
and growing as they share with each other and interact with facilitators.
While the first two modules took place in Kenya, the third module was
hosted here in Rwanda from Oct 21-26 in Kibuye, on the eastern shore of Lake
Kivu.
Since it was held in Rwanda, most of the logistics for the
conference were organized by Laura Lee.
Darrell’s participation was to be one of the ALE facilitators. We are grateful that the week went very well
and feel honoured to have been invited to be a part of such an amazing group of
people.
To help share a little bit of what the experience was like,
Aaron Kenny (our African Team Leader together with is wife, Erica) has posted a
five minute video update about ALE, which includes an interview with
Darrell. You can watch it at the

Please pray for these leaders who are each serving God faithfully
in very challenging circumstances.
