Dear church family,
Thank you very much for your support in my recent trip to Tanzania,
whether that be through financial support or thoughts and prayers. I
really appreciate it! It was amazing to see how God is working in
people half way around the world. I look forward to coming home and
sharing my experience with you. Thank you, or as they say in
Tanzania, asante sana!
