We are now in
Tanzania. My team arrived in Mwanza on Monday after a long and rough
overnight bus ride. We made it safely and are thanking God for that.
Mwanza is the second largest city in Tanzania, and it’s right by Lake
Victoria. It’s beautiful. We are staying in a house with two other
teams. Our team is working with a church in a village. It’s about a
30-minute drive out of town. The village is called Nyamwilolelwa –
yep, it’s a tricky one. We are doing mainly door-to-door visits and
evangelism. Door-to-door in the village takes on a whole new meaning.
It’s not just a few steps to the next house, it’s more like half a
mile or more walking through fields. We are getting our exercise,
that’s for sure, but I like it! I’m very excited to be working in the
village. I feel we get the best of both worlds – we have a nice
place to stay with electricity and running water close to town, but
we still get to work with people in the village. It’s really strange
how they can be so close to the city, yet live so differently. I
think it will be a good experience for our team. Please pray for
health, endurance and for wisdom and discernment while visiting with
people.
