Christ Church Stories
A Burundi Story
We’d like to introduce you to Nadine Pasikari. A daughter who has never known her home. Born one of 12 children, neither Nadine nor her siblings were born in their parent’s home country. As proud natives of Burundi in Africa, in 1972, her parents were forced to flee their home due to a violent tribal war.
