PROFILE: KAYONZA
Kayonza is a small town 30 miles east of Kigali. In this community, most families live in small mud brick or concrete houses and struggle to find consistent work. Parents rely on subsistence farming to provide for their families.
AFRICA NEW LIFE IN KAYONZA
In 2003, Africa New Life opened a school, New Life Christian Academy, to give students who otherwise couldn’t have afforded school the same opportunities as the wealthy of the country. New Life Bible Church meets in the cafeteria every Sunday. Regardless of where they attend school, sponsored students in Kayonza come to New Life Christian Academy to participate in Center Day on Saturday once a month. At Center Day students share a meal, correspond with their sponsors, enjoy games, and hear about God.
In 2011, New Life Christian Academy secondary school tested as the top secondary school in Rwanda, among 1,061 other schools.
