The new pick-up finally arrives!

It was with great excitement that we made the trip through to Arusha to collect our new pick-up, a Toyota Hilux 2.5TD double cabin - wow! Really cool! The car was supplied through the kindness and generosity of our friends at Cartsbridge Evangelical Church, Busby, Glasgow. Many of you will know that Melanie Fyfe from that church was working with us over the past couple of years and her parents visit to Moshi just before Mel left brought the news of this tremendous gift for God's work.
The car was ordered way back in February 2007 but Tanzania being Tanzania it has taken until late July to take possession.
Certainly it has been worth waiting for... as you can see from the photo.

We'd like to thank everyone at Cartsbridge for their generous giving to the MCCC ministry. This new tool will be vital to the effective execution of our responsibilites in the centre and in the community. We praise God for you all.

Uchira - week two of GLO

Immediately after the super week at MCCC we headed of to the community of Uchira with the GLO team to do more of the same... The week had been planned around a specific invitation to the primary 4 and 5 classes of the local school which amounted to a potential 100 kids in the programme. In reality the week ran at 150-200 kids each day and we eventually had to concede to having a "guest" team among the children who were 'uninvited'. It was another superb week and the whole programme ran very smoothly. By the end of the week many of the children wanted to know how to trust the Lord Jesus as their own Saviour. We gave them opportunity to meet with us as we shared the gospel in more detail with them, and 37 children responded to the good news of Jesus. It's no wonder that Jesus said the kingdom of heaven belonged to such as these!

Alan Guy and his team lead the rest
