As I Am #7 -- Beyond the Wall

Just in time for today's International Day of Persons with Disabilities comes a new episode in the #AsIAm film series developed by L'Arche International. Today's video tells a story from Foyer Nazareth in Bouake, Côté d’Ivoire, during the recent civil war that ended in 2011, a story about the incredible bravery of its residents and assistants. The Colonel's big smile when he hugs his friends upon his return reminds me so much of one of my friends in L'Arche Edmonton who gave me an unexpected hug. One of the beautiful things about L'Arche friends is how much they appreciate their friends.

Enjoy!
