  • Turning the other cheek

        That’s what happened to Pastor Deo Gashagaza, of Living Church, an independent church in Rwanda. In 1994 members of the Hutu tribe massacred members of the Tutsi tribe, and any Hutus that got in their way. An estimated 800,000 people died during a 100 day period.
