Our trip to Tanzana (April 4th to 5th)

We really did some work. This is a orphanage that the church has built to house about 20 boys
It is near completion. In the picture is sister Jensen, one of the office couple in Dar Es Salaam, Tanzania.
We also visited four water wells that the church completed in 2006
The schools where the well's were installed are no longer working.
We were there to see what could be done to help.

The Indian Ocean is "bath tub" warm


What a way to be on Mission

On our arrival in Tanzania we traveled by ferry to an island were we stayed for the night.
The resort was call Sunrise Beach.
The beaches were beautiful and the water was as warm as your bath tub.


Hopefully, this is not tomarrow's newspaper headline.

Trip to Johannesburg Temple

We have three families that we took to the Temple.
Steven & Annastaciah Mwangangi, children Bramuel, Samuel & Winnie.
Peter & Gladys Mutunga Mwangangi, children Rhoda and Michael.
Peter & Phillis Kithuku, children Elizabeth, Joseph, John, Nicodemus and Emmanuel.

This is the gang getting off the airplane.
After our trip the children all commented that they wanted to go back to the temple




Irene Mwikya center her sister Caroline right.
Irene served a mission in Rwanda where she met and taught the young man to her left.
Caroline was in the MTC getting ready to serve her mission in Uganda.
The young man is currently serving as a trainer in the MTC.
This was a great day for Irene, she was able to see her sister and the young man she helped convert and go to the temple her first time all in the same day.
Irene was one of our group to attend the temple from Chyulu. At the time she served her mission temple excursions were not part of the missionary preparation program.
