Team News
 
The team arrived in Dodoma at 7.00pm local time on Saturday (26 July) after a very long and tiring journey. Having left Glasgow on Thursday we had an overnight in Dubai before heading to Dar es Salaam for a further overnight before heading to Dodoma by bus on Saturday.  Although the team were tired spirits were high and there was an air of anticipation as to what lay ahead for them.
 
Sunday morning the team went to two different churches.
Team 1  -  Derek McQuaker, Nicky Biddall, Peter Robinson all went to the Tanzanian Assemblies of God
Team 2  -  Andy Martin , May Barr, Kirsty Holt, John Torrens, Chris Rossi & Nick Durston all went to the Kanisa La Mungu ( Church of God ) where Andy preached.
 
In the afternoon there was a welcome tea with all the staff coming to the MAF guest house to meet with the team. This was fun and it was good to be able to put faces to names that often appear in MAF News & MAF prayer diary.
 
Monday morning began early with breakfast at 7am before devotions in the hangar with the MAF staff. After this team 1 who are doing the kids club (May Barr, Nicky Biddall, Kirsty Holy & Chris Rossi) headed off to begin the work. The second team (Derek, Nick, Peter & John) loaded up the vehicles as they prepared to head up country into the bush at Kilimitinde to undertake runway development.
 
Please pray that all continues to go well giving thanks for the safe arrival of the team and their luggage, this was a real answer to prayer.
 
Give thanks that we are able to be and will continue to be a blessing and encouragement to the MAF staff both national and ex pat here in Dodoma . May all that we do bring glory to God and may many through our witness come to know the Lord for themselves.
