About the Book

Through courage, wisdom and unshakable faith in God, a peace-maker from Burundi, Central Africa, helped change the course of his nation at a time of horrific ethnic violence between the Hutu and Tutsi ethnic groups in 1993-1994. Prosper Ndabishuriye's story of standing in front of guns to protect his team members is deeply moving and inspiring. A National Director of Campus Crusade for Christ, Prosper and youth he recruited devised an ingenious strategy by forming teams of men from all ethnic groups to help warring Hutu and Tutsi villagers return to their lands, forgive one another and find peace as they were helped to rebuild their homes. Since 1993, Prosper's organization-Youth in Reconstruction of the World in Destruction, or www.jrmd.org) has built over 3,200 homes for Burundians displaced by the war. This story recounts his partnership with author Mike Seymour and their AfricaAmericaExchange educational project connecting American and Burundian youth around themes of peace, compassion and making the world a better place. Prosper's most recent project is a school and orphanage. www.jrmd.org
About the Author: Mike Seymour spent fourteen years in business corporate management before setting out to find work that he could feel made a meaningful contribution to others. In 1978 he quit the business world, moved from Massachusetts to Washington State and in time became a family therapist as well as consultant to schools and small businesses. One of his clients, The Heritage Institute, became a long-term calling which has given him the satisfaction of serving teachers and their students. Since 1993 Mike has been President of The Heritage Institute which offers continuing education for K-12 teachers. The organization's mission--to "educate for humanity & the world we want"-- comes to life through online courses, workshops and teacher retreats that support an environmentally sustainable, socially just and spiritually fulfilling human presence on Earth. Mike founded a non-profit, Youth for a New World, which engaged youth in global issues and solutions, and which launched the AfricaAmericaExchange connecting youth in Burundi and Washington State around issues of peace and justice. Mike has been on the Board of several non-profits including Community for Youth, a Seattle-based mentoring program for at-risk students located in several of Seattle's most challenged high schools. He is author of the text Educating for Humanity: Rethinking the Purposes of Education which argues for the importance today in an integral approach to education that realizes the interconnectedness of the Earth Community. Mike has authored and delivered over forty (40) workshops, retreats and online courses for educators or the general public in the past twenty years, and has been a facilitator as well as trainer for the Awakening the Dreamer presentation developed by The Pachamama Alliance. Mike has extensive facilitation and presentation experience. He is presently semi-retired and moved as of Fall, 2012 to Beaufort, South Carolina with his wife Maggie.
