Travel Day for Team TZ

Team Tanzania
Today was a travel day! Fred helped us load up the van in Korogwe and we began the 8hr trip to Arusha. The scenery was very pretty and we passed through many towns. It reminded me of why we came here. The living conditions are not the best here in Tanzania and most people spend their entire day working and outside. We could pack our bags with food and aid but that does nothing for their soul. We come to proclaim Gods saving word. We know the grace of God is of far greater importance than the material items needed in this life. Below are some photos of the schools and churches we have had the privilege of visiting so far! It is truly an amazing experience to see each kids face light up as we ask them questions, sing songs, and share the word of God. We will spend the next 6 days helping build a church and teaching our lessons to the congregations near Arusha.

Picture this— July 6th in Zambia
Thank God for not blessing the rains down in Africa!
Hello from Tanzania!
Today is is our third full day here in Tanzania and it was spent teaching 50 kids in Msitu Wa Tembo. It was only an hour long journey that took us through a dry riverbed that could not have been crossed in wet conditions. The kids were incredible at listening and paying close attention to the lessons we taught. I thank God for the confidence He gives me to be able to stand in front of so many people and proclaim His Word. Like how Peter doubted Jesus in the "Jesus Walks on Water" story Valerie is teaching, I had my doubts about being able to speak in front of so many people. I put my trust in the Lord and He enabled me to relax and share His Truth. I'm looking forward to teaching countless new faces as our trip progresses!

Please pray that the Lord would give an abundance of wisdom, love, compassion, patience, and safety to the Mission Helpers and to those they go to serve as the Gospel is proclaimed to many children in several villages throughout Tanzania, and Zambia. Pray also for the pastors and church leaders who have spent much time and effort preparing for this Gospel outreach opportunity.
