Tanzania
On July 1st, 1998, work was implemented in Arusha, Tanznia by the Kensington Woods Church of Christ. It included the planting of the Kilimanjaro Congregation, the use of evangelist from East Africa, and a mission team, made up dedicated men and women from America. The church at Washington Ave joined in this work in 2005 as they were seeking opportunities to spread the Gospel mandated by the scriptures (Matt 28:19-20). It was then determined that TZ-2000 would be a good work to support. We have already seen through our work there the planting of new congregations, 45 as of this date, home bible studies, preacher training, the saving of souls, and the establishment of and Evangelism Outreach, a campaign to reach one million souls. Some of the major challenges in our work there lies in two areas; financial and time. To continue our work there Washington Ave has made a commitment to financially support on a monthly basis a Preacher Training Student and a Native Evangelist. In November of 2007, our first trip to Tanzania is set to occur. Stephen Rogers, our pulpit minister, and Jerome Stewart, one of our elders, will visit Moshi, Usa River, Arusha, and whatever else their time permits. While there, they will engage in a series of workshops on leadership and evengelism. The church at Washington Ave plans to continue its' support the evangelism efforts necessary for the spread of the Gospel. |
