Hello from Tanzania

Our 9 week stay in Tanzania, Africa is quickly coming to an end. The last 2 weeks have been very busy and a great blessing.


The November Bible Institute session was 12 hours of teaching on “Spiritual Gifts”. It was a blessing to hear the national pastors make statements and ask questions about this important subject.

We were invited to hold services in a village one hour from Tabora. We met in a building near a school. You know the Pastor, he loves children. So before the service started he sat in the yard with a group of kids. They could not understand or speak English but he taught them the song “If You’re On Your Way to Heaven, Clap Your Hands”. They all (including the Pastor) had a great time and were glad to see him the next day. There were 19 saved at the village and we thank the Lord for that.

We will drive 6 hours to Mwanza on Friday and will celebrate Thanksgiving Saturday with some American missionaries. The Pastor will preach in Mwanza Sunday. Pray we will be an encouragement to the missionaries and church family there.

We will start home on Friday, December 4th and will arrive in Little Rock December 8th. You will never know how much we miss all of you! Please continue to pray for us as we travel home.

Sharron
