I Am Not Leaving - An Evening with Carl Wilkens
For over a decade, Carl Wilkens has been sharing stories around the globe to inspire and equip people to “enter the world of The Other.” He was the only American who chose to stay in Kigali, Rwanda throughout the 1994 Genocide against the Tutsi. Venturing out each day into streets crackling with mortars and gunfire, he worked his way through roadblocks of angry, bloodstained soldiers and civilians armed with machetes and assault rifles in order to bring food, water, and medicine to groups of orphans trapped around the city. Working with Rwandan colleagues, they helped save the lives of hundreds. His harrowing yet hopeful journey weaves together stories of tremendous risk and fierce compassion in the midst of senseless slaughter.
Join Handspun Hope and Carl Wilkens for the first virtual screening of a 40-minute documentary on Carl's story, I Am Not Leaving, followed by a Q&A with Carl. The event will be held at 7:30 PM, CT on Sunday, April 26. If you are interested in joining us, but cannot join us at that time, we will make sure you get a recording of the event.
