We have received greetings from the Rev. Audace Kwizera, diocesan secretary, on behalf of our brothers and sisters in Buyé. They are well and hope we are also well.

The pictures are of a food security initiative which members of the Edmonton diocese support through a partnership with PWRDF. They show the Rev. Damascene Bagirubwira, a diocesan development officer, with farmers and their crops of beans, maize and rice which are expected to yield a satisfactory crop in January, 2020.

In the meantime, Kwizera reports that the Mothers' Union (MU) is busy enrolling new members and we can look forward to receiving more pictures in the new year.
