Bishop John Rucyahana
Anglican Bishop John Rucyahana was elected Bishop of the Shyira diocese of Rwanda in 1997. During his term, he often escaped death, even as many pastors, friends and family members were killed in the ongoing genocide. He works tirelessly for reconciliation in Rwanda: having founded the Sonrise orphanage for children orphaned in the genocide, and ministering in prisons to its perpetrators. He is the author of The Bishop of Rwanda: Finding Forgiveness Amidst a Pile of Bones.
