Reflections of Change: March 2008
http://ottfamilynews.blogspot.com/2008_03_01_archive.html
Facing the unknown with complete faith and surrender. In this life we cannot do great things. We can only do small things with great love. At war from 1998 - 2003. 1,500 people die per day in DRC because of the conflict. 40% of the casualties are women and children even though they only comprise 19% of the population. Deadliest conflict since WWII. Over 5.4 million people have died since 1998. Life expenctancy is 46 years. DRC is the third largest country in Africa, 1/4 of the size of US. A girl or a boy?
