Well Hi again from <=
st1:country-region
w:st=3D"on">Tanzania,=
As always over here =
we
have not been without something to do! I was thinking that we<=
!--[if gte vml 1]>
![](3D"nov2005_files/image008.jpg") missionaries often =
share
mostly the good news and not the rough side of things…. Maybe we are
opposite to our worlds newspapers! But God IS on the throne and we DO know
His encouragement even when discouragement comes along…. So I am go=
ing
to share again the blessings that we are privileged to be a part of over
here….. hope it encourages you!

=
Mairowa
children and water…..
![](3D"nov2005_files/image010.jpg") We have 340 kids spo=
nsored
at Mairowa now with the aim of Christian education bringing long-term
transformation into their lives. There is a shortage of food there and the
help is kind of opportune.
This child, Haruni,
has 100% sure been saved already. He had 35% of normal red blood count du=
e to
malaria, malnutrition and whatever. Thank you to the overseas
‘parents’! ![](3D"nov2005_files/image011.jpg")
Well we finally have a hand pump with wat=
er
coming out of the borehole!! And weren’t the mamas happy! This lady on the right has the f=
irst
two buckets of water to carry back home. Imagine that ladies!<=
/span>
![](3D"nov2005_files/image012.jpg") Its taken a while becau=
se its
been like extracting chickens teeth trying to get a generator for the
submersible pump we planned to put down the hole. Once that is in we will
have 8000 litres/ hour…. A LOT of water=
! Then
the Maasai GUYS will be REALLY happy because of having water for the cows=
!!
We can look at small irrigation then and maybe help the locals in the dro=
ught
times.
Kondoa and the leaders….<=

style=3D'font-family:"Bookman Old Style";color:navy'>We had a great time =
with a
team of folks from Scottsdal=

recently…. Frank brought the first team for seminar work heres a bit of what Gidori said about the time we h=

together…..![](3D"nov2005_files/image013.jpg")

![](3D"nov2005_files/image015.gif") Heres a bit of what Gidori
said…..
“ That evening when we entered =
Kondoa
city we surround all town by prayers. Our team [Imara]
with the committee and some of the Intercessors went in of the areas wher=
eby
they were being said were the evil stronghold of the Satan. We rebuked and
cast away all evil powers and establish His Kingdom in those areas!<=
/o:p>
At this location 242 lead=
ers
attended the Seminar more than what we planned [200 leaders]

Helping one another even =
in our
diversities is one of the most important things! Pastor Mike is demonstra=
ting
how Aaron and Hur helped Moses.

“Mama, do you agree=
with
your husband with everything he tells you?” Mike asked a tough ques=
tion
to Shango’s wife when demonstrating abo=

having a fellowship with your fellow Pastor/ leader despite of our
diversities.
Testimonies:
In front of my desk right=
now I
have about 50 papers full of thanksgiving and wonderful testimonies. Let me try to pinpoint some of t=
hem.

![](3D"nov2005_files/image018.jpg") I thank the Lord for =
this
Seminar for it has stretched me in some of the areas whereby I was so
small. Thanks to Mama Joshua for AIDS teachings. I liked the way she
taught us and it was so clear to me than I understood UKIMWI before.
From Dorcas Sungura=
[TAG- Kondoa]
- I congratulate all those who got this vision of uniting
God’s children together. What I got in this Seminar is strengt=
h to
move on. I was so hesitant to associate with other denominational
people, but at least now I know we are moving in the same direction =
and
we have one enemy- the Satan .[By Issidori Ngobito]
- As this is our first Leadership Seminar, I have no words to
express my thanks to the Lord of Lords. I have come to know the
importance of unity.
- We are not poor! We are not poor! Our poverty is in our minds=
for
sure. This man from Nai=
robi
[Dennis] has opened up my mind and I don’t know where to start=
but
I have something now…. [Emmanuel Mwosi]
- I am
released from the burden I have been carrying! God loves me I have
proved in this Seminar. The things which were hidden were revealed t=
o me
through His servants. What a mighty God we serve?...[Victoria Eliezer <=
/li>
![](3D"nov2005_files/image019.jpg") <=
/span>
- I have come to know the value of a woman and how to take care=
for
my children in His love [Paulina Krisenti]. May God bless you all who came here=
to
teach us and Imara Mini=

<=
span
style=3D'font-family:"Bookman Old Style";color:navy'>I think that’s
probably enough for this month. If you are able to pray with us…..<=
o:p>
- Sharon and Peter getting married over here very
soon [3rd Dec] so we are homing in on that this next week=
or
so. Thanks to those of you who have been able to help us there- its very appreciated. We are really looking for=
ward
to having Kirsty and Josh with us as well as Ki=
rstys
friend Rhett.
- Pray with us as the work continues to go forwar=
d.
We have a LOT of teams coming ove=
r next
year. We want to enable others to help us strengthen the church here=
- in
fact the more we are able to do that the better as far as we are
concerned!! [I hope we can have a base in the centre/ south of the
country through time] =
But Imara needs to grow in its capacity to =
handle
the work as well. We are getting there and folks are getting behind =
Imara to build that capacity. [We have =
some
key guys coming in January to work with us] It of course brings its
growing pains with change.
- Living Way are helping sponsor the first small =
key leaders seminar /encouragement/building time on=
the 7th/8th.
Years back Robert Porter in Australia
shared with us the God was going to unfold his plan bit by bit to us.
This is part of the unfolding and we would appreciate your prayers w=
ith
us on this one. I believe it is very much a part of what He is wanti=
ng
us to do to strengthen the church here.
- Lyndall asked for prayer for our first HIV/AIDS
centered team here in January going to Mwika, followed by the next
school for our next 16 village health workers.=
- Brenda from New Zealand comes in
February to ‘spy out the land’ with a view to possibly
working with us. She is pretty excited about coming!

Blessings and thanks,=
