The last several weeks have been busy ones. Since returning from Uganda, we have attended a Maasai "send-off" for a bride-to-be, a Secondary School graduation, a yearly staff conference, a two day safari to the Ngorongoro Crater and the Lake Manyara National Park, visited with friends from the USA, had meetings with administrative staff and finally said our good-by to Bill and Sally Sandford from our home church in Decatur, TX.
The "send-off" and the graduation were nothing like we had ever experienced before, full of action and lots of "food". Both of those celebrations were very colorful and lasted for hours and hours.
The yearly staff conference was a great success. Pat and I were privileged to be asked to speak (teach) at the conference, which was attended by "Here's Life" staff, team leaders, associates (and their wives) and several board members and their wives from the USA. After the four day conference we were invited to go and "watch the animals" with some of the Americans, which was a real blessing for us . There were then a few evaluation meetings with staff and board members and finally the ride to the Kilimanjaro airport with the last of the Americans, Bill and Sally. Needless to say, today was a real slow one.
We hope you enjoy the pictures of the events of the last few weeks. We also hope you all got a copy, by e-mail, of our "P & J Tanzanian Mission, Quarterly Report: June - September, 2007. If you didn't get a copy, we apologize and will send you one if you let us know.
Please know that we couldn't make it through the day without your prayers!
Mungu Awa Bariki (God Bless all of you)
