The following correspondence is from Pastor David to Lisa Paulsen, HRLC's Rwanda Sister Parish facilitator:
Dear Lisa Paulsen,I greet you in Jesus’ name. I want to inform you that the Lutheran Church of Rwanda on November 2, 2006 made changes to transfer some pastors to different parishes. Our Almighty God, through the executive committee of LCR, sent me to be parish pastor of Nyagatare Parish, your companion parish. On January 27, 2007 the Deputy Bishop came to Nyagatare to put me officially in office at the Nyagatare Parish.
My name is Ntidendeza David; my wife’s name is Kukundwa Rose. We have three children. Our first born is named Kaliza Saveline. She is 6 years and 8 months old and is in primary school two. Our second born is Gikundiro Rebecca. She is three years and a half and is in nursery school. Third born is Bahizi Eric, who is one year and eight months. Before I came to Nyagatare to be the parish pastor I was parish pastor of Kigali.
Dear Lisa, it is my expectation that our communication will be on telling each other what is going on in our parishes. Convey my warmest greetings to your family and all parishioners of Holy Redeemer Lutheran Church in San Jose.
Yours,
Rev. Ntidendeza David
