Links for Monday

Naomi and I would like to thank Carol Boss and Women's Focus for a great interview on Saturday.  It's an amazing "venue" for our community and we absolutely appreciate being able to share our work through it.

We also spent the afternoon, along with volunteer Meagan Stokes, at the local August 13th Memorial for the 2004 Gatumba Massacre.  http://www.gatumbasurvivors.org/  It was an incredible day filled with music, praise, heart-wrenching stories, and generous spirit.  Thank you to Eric Ndaheba for inviting us, and to everyone there who welcomed us and allowed us to share this important day with them.

 

There has been a wave of news stories regarding South Sudan and Sudan in the past few days. I’m attaching links to a few here:

From Voice of America: IOM to begin repatriating thousands of stranded South Sudanese

From the Sudan Tribune: Sudan warns US it will reject any new initiative for peace in Darfur

From the Sudan Tribune: South Sudan “feels pain” of fighting in S. Kordofan

And, from allAfrica.com, this story about the amazing hopefulness of youth: Sudan: International Youth Day- Darfur’s youth look to a better future.

 

We'll have more 50,000 Bones Preview Installation updates on Wednesday, so check back!
