Thank you for your generous donations of cows and other items to benefit our Tanzanian partners in ministry.If you wish to make a gift in support of the trip, it could be directed toward the Anniversary Fund, which will benefit all three of our partner congregations. The Mission trip to Tanzania was held Aug. 16-31, 2010.
A note from Pastor Chris upon arrival at Sing’isi community: “We arrived around 9:00 p.m. and ended our very long journey... Probably close to 75 people met us at the airport with beautiful singing and warm smiles. It felt wonderful to be back in Tanzania. We then drove to the guest house of the diocese where the entire group followed and continued singing to us. Thankfully, they took mercy on us and let us go to bed. This morning is approximately high 60s outside and beautiful. Mount Meru’s peak is clearly visible from our house. We’ll next travel to the bishop’s office after breakfast to greet him and his staff. Mchungaji Chris”
