This summer, 2014, a delegation of interested people set off for the
Republic of Burundi, Africa to attend their National Youth Conference. They were
able to observe and discover first hand an amazing phenomenon. Burundi Africa
is experiencing growth and change. The people are uniting to build their nation
into something they can be proud of.
One of the youth delegates, Marisa Dean, a student with United
Graduate College and Seminar International, had this to say about her
experiences. "I wanted to understand how groups of people actually create
change from the lens of looking at a whole country. Understanding their needs
and the correct way to supply those needs." She went on to tell us after
her visit and experiencing the environment of Burundi, "In my observation,
Burundi is being structurally rebuilt under new principles, under the alignment
of Godly principles." Miss Dean expressed how she observed the effect of
this in the peaceful environment throughout the country. She said, "It was
inspiring."
This is the New Burundi
