Quick Trip to TZ

God has blessed us with the opportunity to make a quick 6-week trip to the Manyara Region next week!

Surprise!

While this is the quickest trip that we have ever planned, it is also a trip with an itinerary unlike any other trip we have ever planned, as well.

We have been leading conferences for ministry leaders in the Rift Valley of Northern Tanzania since 2008 with the aim of equipping and activating them in their call and gifting for ministry. We have seen such maturity developed. Praise God!

In recognition of their growth and missional advancement and in encouragement of the indigenous leadership that has taken large strides in the past several years, we are now able to turn over the majority of the training events/conferences to them.

Thus, in June 2012, Activation International saw the need for another area of development: teaching them not only to be disciples of Christ. . .but also to follow Jesus' instructions in Matthew 28:18-20,
to go and make disciples of all nations.

The Discipleship Class was very successful. As reports come in about the expansion and spiritual growth in the region, God has been tugging on the hearts of the Activation International Teaching Team, urging us to return briefly to encourage them in the work, to ensure strong and balanced leadership and sound doctrine, and to thwart any infiltration or sabotage from the Enemy. Thus, arrangements are underway for us to meet with each of the members of the Discipleship Class personally in their villages so that we may coach and exhort them in the ministry and work God has entrusted to them.

Please pray with us!
