Grace and Peace to you friends.
Today's report comes to you from one of our faculty members and director of the Arusha Bible School, Desdery Massawe:
"Hello brethren, I hope all you are doing well and the work of the Lord is going well all over the world. Although some challenges are still there, nothing will stop the gospel of Christ to be preached. As Paul says, “Who shall separate us from the love of Christ? Could oppression, or anguish, or persecution, or famine, or nakedness, or peril, or sword? Even as it is written, "For your sake we are killed all day long. We were accounted as sheep for the slaughter." No, in all these things, we are more than conquerors through him who loved us. For I am persuaded, that neither death, nor life, nor angels, nor principalities, nor things present, nor things to come, nor powers, nor height, nor depth, nor any other created thing, will be able to separate us from the love of God, which is in Christ Jesus our Lord.” Romans 8:35-39

Student Highlight
"Shedrack Efrem Mkombwe is among of the best students in second year. He was born in April 1987 at the village known as Iguluba in the Iringa region. He is the first born in their family. He married Maria Kabula in 2017 and now they have one kid. He was baptized in 2011 at Ipogolo church of Christ in Iringa town. He moved from Iringa to Kyela, Mbeya and also there is working with the church and his fellow workers Mwantimwa and Mwampogolo. He is a hard worker. After graduating the school he will be a good evangelist for the church at Kyela.
"We would like to thank God and all who make these to be possible. May God bless you all."
I join with Desdery in wishing that God's blessings are with you. We appreciate you being a part of the work in Tanzania. I also want to solicit your prayers for our family and for others who will be traveling to Tanzania in the coming months. May God provide safe travel, good health, and effective efforts throughout it all.
