Tanzania Update

HABARI (Hello how are you!)
Greetings dear friends and followers
Just a change of procedure as I am currently in Mbeya Tanzania and having a great time. Arriving from Johannesburg on Tuesday having had a nice time there, with my daughter Cheryl we spent yesterday looking around and getting used to the place a little.
Today we are to be welcomed officially and commence our service in the Shrukani College. Today after the welcome and morning tea we have painting the walls of a class room and then this afternoon personal ministry with staff and students.
Cheryl and I are beginning to learn some Swahili and it is quite funny to watch the faces of the beautiful people when we say something that has not meaning to them at all. Perhaps it might be that one of the letters I write will be in Swahili so that will be interesting.

It is quite cold here and very noisy as we have a Pentecostal church one side of us and a Islamic Mosque the other side. We are kept up very late with the singing of the Pentecostals and woken at around 4.00 a.m with the call to the Islamic prayers, so it is great!
Our God is awesome and we praise Him for all His goodness.
I trust you will continue to remember us in your prayers as we will value them.
This is the day the Lord has made we will rejoice and be glad in it!
That's all for the moment as Internet is very very expensive from here, but will try and keep an update as often as possible.
God Bless you!
Kwanheri....Goodbye (Swanhili)
