TANZANIAN UPDATES

MTO WA MBO - Thanks to Dale Slusser from the Helps headquarters back in Asheville, NC the Mto Wa Mbo church drawings are complete. Pastor Robert Mailya was very grateful to Helps for providing these drawings. He will let me know when funds are available to begin building, and I may be asked to return to help.

VILLAGE OF LIVING HOPE (VLH)- SHINYANGA, - Thanks to Bruce Watson from the Helps headquarters we were able to complete schematic drawings for nearly all of the buildings that Mike and Claire Fedele envision for the VLH project to help orphans, particularly those with albinism in this region of Tanzania where they are so brutally treated. Two significant events have put this project on a temporary hold: 1) The 9 acres they had a purchase agreement for fell through, so they are seeking a new piece of land closer to town; this will change the master plan that we had developed, but should have little impact on the variety of buildings they seek to be housed in this Village; 2) Claire Grubbs, founder of VLH, is now Claire Fedele! She and Mike married in May, and have only recently returned to Shinyanga to resume their ministry activity there. Please keep this newlywed couple and their amazing ministry in prayer, as well as the search for the best land for the VLH to be located.
