KNOW YOUR HISTORY: How King Rudahigwa dedicated Rwanda to Christ

By 1900, the first White Fathers had arrived in Rwanda to spread Christianity to the natives. According to history documents, a delegation including Monsignor Jean-Joseph Hirth visited King Yuhi (Mwami) Musinga in February 1900 to discuss a number of issues (religion inclusive). After the conversation, the King gave them the Save site (Gisagara district) on which they built their first mission.
