Our plan is to stay the first three days in Iringa, visiting an orphanage, a secondary school, Tumaini university and the Diocese office. After that we will split up and visit our sister congregations. Clay, Ruth, Judy, and Denny will visit Pommern. Dean and Tracy will visit Ihimbo. We will worship at the village churches and we will also travel to many "preaching points" surrounding each village. Our goal is to let the people we meet know that they are loved and supported by people halfway around the world, and that we stand with them bega kwa bega, different in many ways but indistinguishable in God's grace and love.

Arrived Safely in Iringa

I spoke briefly with Dean earlier this afternoon. The entire group has arrived safely in Iringa!

Dean had a long 14 hour bus ride (and managed to survive despite having nothing to eat or drink for 25 hours). Judging by the laughter in the background, as well as his voice, everyone is excited and in great spirits!

Tracy, Dean, Clay, Denny, Ruth and Judy --- know that your friends and family in Minnesota love you and are praying for a wonderful Tanzania experience.

Happy Father's Day to the dads in the group and at home!
