Hello ladies and Gentlemen,
this is team Tanzania coming all the way from Tanzania... shocker i know haha, anyways, thank you for your prayers and support. we are having lots of fun so far, we all got a sun burn yesterday... one of us more than the rest, yes that's me... Josiah... the silly white boy who didn't wear sunscreen. we have been doing many things here, we started out doing a youth seminar at Angaza women s shelter place thingy that we are staying at for now, and we had a good time discussing the topic of prayer with them and things like that. then after that we go to go see the Sana Juu market the other day and wow things are cheap, you can get a pineapple for 1000 shillings, about 75 cents, and a big bag of passion fruits for 2000 shillings. and it is all freshly picked its awesome. they eat bananas almost all the time and i'm not a big fan of there cooked bananas, just not my thing i guess. did you know there is over 30 different types of banana? i didn't, until now. we got to see a church service on Sunday and it was interesting, after wards the congregation goes outside for a big auction, never seen that. yesterday we went to Ngorony youth camp and spent the day talking to youth and playing games like soccer (which they destroyed us at) Volleyball, and a game they call net ball but is like keep away with teams, and that's when i burnt. we are having a good time please to continue praying for health, and wisdom, and rest as we are all starting to feel exhausted. thank you

Way to go Josiah! It's so good to hear from your team and am so coveting all that fresh fruit... the perks of being in a tropical zone. We think of you daily over there and hope you are managing to hang in despite poor health and exhaustion. You'll all start feeling like yourselves right about the time you get to come home! Kelowna had blue sky & sunshine today, but not quite as warm as you have it! We're continuing to hold you up in prayer and missing you. Love (Dan's) Mom xo
