This post is one that we are writing with great anticipation. After years of planning and months of preparation we have finally broken ground on our land in Tanzania. It is your constant support of prayer and finances that has created this opportunity.
As you know we have been renting homes in the community of Tabora. We have been waiting for the opportunity to build our own homes on the land we purchased back in June of 2017. So we are now in the very beginning stages of building 10 homes, a school house, a playground and more to create a healthy and safe environment for these kids to grow up in and experience the overwhelming love of God and give them a new shot at life.
We have seen incredible joy and growth over the last year with our kids. They are learning the bible, learning how to read and to count. They are finding joy in their lives and feeling loved by their new parents. Over 60 kids have been given this new shot of life and we are so thankful for all the Lord is doing.
Stay tuned for more updates on the community development in the months to come, and please keep our team in prayer.
