Forgiveness Makes You Free: A Dramatic Story of Healing and Reconciliation from the Heart of Rwanda

Fr. Ubald Rugirangoga
Ave Maria Press, 192 pages

Fr. Ubald Rugirangoga survived the 1994 Rwandan genocide. Eighty of his family members and 45,000 of his parishioners did not. Shaken by the tragedy, he has dedicated his ministry to reconciliation and healing between the Tutsis and Hutus whose long-simmering ethnic animosity ignited the slaughter of some 800,000 Rwandans. In this remarkable book, Fr. Ubald tells his story and relates a message of hope as he encourages forgiveness and peace wherever wounds are to be found. His “five spiritual keys” are central to his message, and he closes with a guided meditation for those who wish to overcome hatred and fear in order to find peace.
