MISSIONARY NEWS - THE SHIPE FAMILY (to Tanzania) - What a delight it is to remember that we are ever in the care of our loving Father, and to know that no matter where it is God leads us—whether in our neighborhood or around the world in some foreign country—God’s care and power are not diminished! He remains the Almighty God no matter when or where we roam. As we look towards Tanzania, it feels many days like we are on a train that is rapidly gaining steam. Truly things are progressing as we prepare to move to Tanzania this fall. Our support has reached 90%, the children’s passports are being processed, and the next 3 years of homeschooling curriculum has been purchased and packed. Beginning August 17th, I will be traveling to Tanzania for two weeks seeking to purchase a reliable vehicle, arrange housing for the first year, and acquire resident visas. PRAISES FOR: several great meetings and increased support; safety; four professions of faith; and growth in our efforts to learn Swahili. PRAY FOR: the granting of our resident visas; wisdom about a land purchase near the Datooga; our home to sell; the remaining 10% of our support; and a Tanzania woman to help my wife learn the language and culture the first year. We truly thank you for your prayers for us.
