Rwandans are really gifted at languages. In our staff room, the tutors switch easily between Kinyarwanda, Kiswahili, French and English. This talent for languages shows up in other places in the culture as well. Last Sunday I went to mass at Centre Christus, a Jesuit center in Kigali. The 8 a.m. mass was in French. The readings, songs and prayers were all in French. Pretty amazing!
