Out of Africa and onto a new continent. Month 7 in Tanzania was pretty challenging. I was placed into a new role…leaving the finance position to take on leadership for team Segullah. Ah Transition. 🙂
Month 7 was probably the most difficult for our team, with sicknesses taking over and the feeling of homesickness prevailing. We spent the month preaching and speaking at different schools. As amazing as Africa was and the awesome things God did through us and in us we were ready to leave. We had rest in Zanzibar for 3 days which was much needed, then came the big announcement.
TEAM CHANGES
Now with only 28 people on ouR squad (some squad mates were called home), it was time for things to be shaken up a bit.
So Team Segullah no longer exits but will forever live in our hearts.
I am now leading 2 different women and 1 who was on Segullah. It’s the four of us.
We’re Team Hadassah! New country, New dynamics, and completely scary. I love it! It was so different at first not knowing what to expect but we all took on the challenge with excitement. We’re pumped to see what God will do with Hadassah and how He will use us within the team and in ministry.
Hadassah was Ester’s other name. This name was mentioned before she became Queen. Ester is royalty as are we. She had courage and great faith. She was an intercessor for her people. She was a beautiful woman who had great favor with her king and The King of kings.
This name was confirmed to us after we walked into Asha Nepal (our first ministry together as a team) and saw a young girl. Shannon greeted her and asked for her name. She said “Hi, I’m Ester”.
So it is written 🙂
