About this author

Today Immaculée is regarded as one of world's leading speakers on peace, faith, and forgiveness. She has shared her universal message with world dignitaries, school children, multinational corporations, churches, and at many conferences.

“The love of a single heart can make a world of difference.”
Immaculee Ilibagiza, Left to Tell: Discovering God Amidst the Rwandan Holocaust
