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.

Jambo!!

Hello All!

Jambo from Ilboru Safari Lodge in Arusha!

I have successfully climbed Mt. Kilimanjaro, not with ease, but I made it to the top. I have purchased a bus ticket to Iringa and hope to be on the 6:00 a.m. bus. I should arrive at the Iringa bus station at about 6:00 p.m. I have just successfully activated the Tanzania cell phone. I will attempt to contact Tom Nielsen some time tonight or during my bus ride to let him know of my planned arrival time.

So many stories to tell. Miss you all!

-Dean

  1. Great to hear from you, Dean! Looking forward to hearing stories from the mountain experience as well as in Iringa.... I wonder if there is much interest in the World Cup there! :)
