Our biggest news yet…

The Lord is making a way for the first Orphanage and Educational Center in Bunda, Tanzania. The official name is Centre for Community Empowerment and Transformation or to make it easy CCET.

I remember in 2022, we were in Tanzania on mission, we joined Pastor Jeremiah on a late night ministry call. He told us that a 14 year old orphan girl named Karesha had just past away due to malaria. She had been abandoned by her aunt, who her and her sisters had lived with, but now living in the community with anyone who would let them stay. She only had malaria for one week but had no chance without medication. We drove through the dark and bumpy neighborhood to find that they had already moved her to the morgue. As we prayed for the family, I remember the heartache we all had and still have today when I think of her.

Karesha will forever be in our hearts…

This facility will be an answer to prayer!

In 2023, Pastor Jeremiah shared his request and prayer with the other local pastors and government. Because the need is so great in this area, they all donated enough that allowed Pastor Jeremiah to purchase nine acres of land.

During our mission trip last year, we had a opportunity to walk the land and pray for how God was leading us. Pastor Jeremiah shared that the surrounding community was under spiritual attack and that many families have left their homes due to many practicing witchcraft.

Learn more here about Phase One and how you can join us in ministry.

Prayer Requests

• Pray for this community, specifically for the spiritual battle and that those who are practicing witchcraft come to know Jesus and are transformed?
