A Time Of Teaching...

Bill enjoys teaching a class on American law

and government and the comparison of it

to the Tanzanian system.

The students are ready for the new school term.

Monday…
The new term for all students started today. Bill began teaching American law and government comparing it with the Tanzanian system, while Anne resumed her teaching with the girls with Zech assisting her.

Later in the day, Frank, Floyd, Bill and Zech toured the property of the Spring Valley Girls Secondary School—the size of the property surprised the team—over 20 acres. The development of the property would provide for the growth of the school for years to come and a consistent source of income and food products.

Floyd and Bonnie met with Frank to discuss economic development opportunities for the support of the children’s home and training center. They also met with Daimon, school manager, and Frank to go over in detail the operation of the school, legal requirements, school budget and finances, and opportunities for future development of the school and partnerships.

The team purchased hand-made clothing and household items from Elisabeth and Neema to help them support their ministry.

Floyd, Bill and Anne ventured out at night to the Internet café (without Mpeli or Frank for the first time). We were amazed at how empty the streets were in Iringa…only two or three shops were open in the town. We did have the best fried chicken of our journey tonight. The chicken was so good that we asked for more. In 30 minutes, we had another very fresh serving of fried chicken—very fresh.

Teachers and staff at the Girls School

are also ready for the new term.
