Siliac is back at Umuryango :)

I am so thrilled to say that Siliac is now back at Umuryango! Last nite he saw Theresa and Sam on the street in Gitarama and came running up to them and said he wanted to go back to Byimana! What a tremendous blessing and an answer to prayer!!! We think he realized how much worse his life was on the streets, as it was pretty cold the two nites he was there. It seems as if he might be staying for good now. Thanks for all of the prayers for him. We were talking about how his experience reminded us of the story of the Prodigal Son. We were devastated when he chose to walk away from Umuryango. In spite of all of the blessings and love he received (from us and others) at Umuryango, he chose the path to leave. Yet, we were able to receive him back with open arms and joyful hearts.
