WOLVERHAMPTON AND SHREWSBURY METHODIST DISTRICT PARTNERS WITH THE FREE METHODIST CHURCH OF RWANDA
BACKGROUND TO OUR RELATIONSHIP WITH RWANDA
Thirteen years ago, the Wolverhampton and Shrewsbury District of the Methodist Church extended a hand of friendship to Rwandan people through the work of the Free Methodist Church of Rwanda and PHARP.
The Free Methodist Church operates throughout Rwanda and runs a wide range of social, economic and health services as well as spiritual activities. PHARP, as a non-profit organization, on the other hand focusses on peace building, healing and reconciliation.
There is so much to be celebrated in our relationship and there is no doubt that our friendship has deepened and grown.
From the outset, the vision has been and still is of a long-term friendship contrasting development aid strategies which raise funds and send money to poor people in Third World Countries and then leave them to it.
This friendship does respect human beings as created in God's image, is respectful and generous in nature, and unlimited in spirit and action. It has been in this spirit that leaders of the Free Methodist Church in Rwanda and of PHARP visit the District and those from the District visit their friends in Rwanda.
Our fundraising efforts and prayers for each other continue to be in that same spirit of mutual respect and understanding. Please do continue for this friendship to grow and develop.
