The First Conference

Saturday we finished the first conference with nearly 70 pastors from the Mwanza area. They were very engaged and asked a lot of questions. Some of the pasters were among those we have already worked with and could give testimony to what God has done in their ministry because of our work together.

At the end of the evangelism training, we went out into the nearby neighborhoods and saw more than 40 people pray to recieve Christ. Some of the pastors had never done this and were very excited to see God use them like that. We pray that will translate to their churches.


One of the greatest blessings of working with these guys is meeting the next generation of leaders. Among them is Billy Brown and James Kulokea. We call Billy "Billy Graham" He is probably one of the best interpreters I have ever used. Tanzania has a bright future with young men like him. He is pictured above on the left.

Thanks for your prayers. They mean more than anything. Pray for safety as we travel to Mugumu. I do not know what we will find there as I have never been. But there is another group of pastors waiting to be trained, so we go.

For the Harvest,
Phil
