About Myself

Our life as missionaries in Kigali, Rwanda, has been a great experience. I am Danieke, an 11 year old. I turn twelve on the 31st of August. I have three younger siblings. Marijke, who is turning 9 on the 21st of April. Matthijs, who is 6, turns 7 May 29th. And lastly, Johannes, who turns 3 on September the 25th. And of course, I can't give away my parents ages. Their names are Richard and Jocelyn Jelsma. My dad is Dutch, and my mom is Canadian. I like to think of myself as Dutch, for some random reason. We left to go to Rwanda on October 12th, 2008. We then stayed in Holland for a couple of weeks. It was great to see relatives.
