Prayer requests
- Praise God that Holly is able to join me for this long three-week trip! Pray God sustains her with energy and health throughout. This will be her first time back to Tanzania since we lived there 13 years ago.
- Pray for Matt, my training partner in Louisville, and the network of pastors and ministry leaders. Also pray that the pastors in Dar will be able to gather, and that the refresher training will be a blessing to them, the first time we’ve all been together in about 10 years. Both these groups of pastors will receive the “Whole Story of the Bible” workshop.
- Pray for Pastor James Andrew, coordinator for Muheza. Pray all the final workshop and graduation details will come together. Pastors will preach full messages through book of Habakkuk.
- Pray that both these Tanzania networks will continue practicing Pathways principles and passing training on to many others in their regions.
