Finally an update on the Zimbabwe Conference and Mozambique

September 19th Mark, William, Brad, Member and Derrick headed into Zimbabwe to teach at a conference in Chikombedzi.  They spent the weekend with the church, and the conference was started on Monday, September 23rd.  They taught 3 sessions each day and covered stewardship with:
- time,
-money,
-family
 -The Gospel


 They had a great time with the church in Chikombedzi and we encourage to check out more photos from the conference on the Samaria Mission Facebook page

 After the conference in Zimbabwe, they headed to Mozambique.  They spent time traveling to different villages spending time with the pastors and leaders. 

Please take time to visit the Mozambique Update on the Samaria Mission Facebook page. 

PaulAnn, our sending church, has spent several outreaches in Tchale working alongside Pastor Highway.   During this trip, the guys arrived in Tchale and found Highway walking with his Bible and a Proclaimer.   They enjoyed visiting and were encouraged to see how Highway continues to faithfully serve the Lord!  

 

We wanted to share some photos of the church building.  In 2012, the PaulAnn team was able to help build the structure and over the last year Highway and the church members have been busy with the roof.  




 While they spent time with Pastor Robert in Matsilele, Mark discovered that Cassilda's house where she used to live was abandoned.   Pastor Robert told Mark they were fine and they had moved closer to the church.  When Mark had time he went for a walk and used some of his broken Shangaan and was able to find her new home.   They are doing well and she even has a new grandbaby. 



This next week I will get to travel with Mark and some of the other mission staff to Matsislele for the Annual Pastors Conference.  I am looking forward to returning to Mozambique (I haven't been there in a year since the border has been closed since January.)  It will be great to spend some time with Cassilda as well as the pastors wives.
