The Flame, a structure constructed in the center of a round-about near the center of Arusha, symbolizes the “birth” of the city. Engravings and symbols on each of the base pillars bringing farming and industry together. It seemed a fitting place for us to pray for the people of Arusha and to bless them in the name of the Most High God.

The AIM team arrived here on a Sunday afternoon and inquired of God how He wanted us to proceed. The Lord directed us to declare the word of the Lord in order to leave a lasting blessing on this spot for the people of Ausha.
Some local pastors and church leaders joined us so that we had AIM missionaries working along Tanzanian pray-ers to establish the name of the Most High God in this place.
