Graduation Time
The year has flown by in a blink of an eye. 61 leaders from all corners of Tanzania completed this year. It started with 65. One of the students fell ill and died in the first month. Several others failed to return for the last semester. It is such a great privilege to be part of the New Life Outreach Academy of Leadership. 21 of the graduates plan to plant new works in areas of Tanzania that have no churches!
This is the first year that the students gave out awards to some of the teachers. Dr. Egon, Principle Paul Troquille, Pastor Reggie Moffet, and I all are very happy!
Pastor Randy and Cathy Cilluffo from New Orleans were the guests of honor all week. It was so wonderful to have teaching from our hometown Pastor.
Greg Fritz was the other guest preacher this week. He really stirred up the fire during the times of ministry. He was teaching on the importance of the ministry of helps. He called up Don and David to demonstrate how those who are called to serve are just as important as the one behind the pulpit.
Don puts on his dancing shoes!Click on the link to see what happened when Greg fritz had Don and some other missionaries try to follow the dance moves of the Tanzanians! :)
There was a blowout time of praise on Saturday. It was lots of dancing and praising and prayer. It was so powerful!
Countdown to our USA trip!
Don and I have not been in the States for 2 years. We depart Tanzania February 4th! Let us know if you would like for us to share at a home group or church meeting! We want to meet with as many of our friends as possible! Pray that we have good travel weather! Pray for new doors to open! We want to return to Tanzania in April with our batteries charged and fire burning!
God is so good!
