We're excited to introduce to you some of our new students who will be joining us for the spring semester. Today's featured student is Theoneste Sentabire, who joins us from Rwanda as an International MDiv Cooper Scholar: 

Peace is not an absence of hostilities only! It embraces all spheres of life. I have discovered that Peace is the pillar of all sought of life. My studies at FTC opened avenues in realizing this by the whole aspect of living in a community that embraced the ideals of peaceable kingdom here on earth, especially in the aspect of developing models of peace for instance in peace studies.  My experience in realizing this peace that surpasses human understanding is a key in opening my calling to serve as a peacemaker/activist. My chance to participate in leadership conference and study at ESR in peace studies will be very helpful and instrumental in achieving my dream.
