Day 5
Today we went out to two different remote villages.
Yawombai, and Canala.
Both over an hour and a half away from Morogoro.
These incredible people live out here in these remote places without electricity, running water, or a school/hospital.
Yet they will travel miles some even walk 5-6 hours just to get to church.
They gather in building just like these. Made out of mud, wood, and straw.
They usually have over 50-60 people meeting in these small small buildings. There are only 7 benches in the whole building yet they all gather together.
But since the house is made of this materials, when the rain season comes it will destroy this building. When it is destroyed there is no more church for these people.
But! There is hope!
ICC is currently collecting funds to build new buildings for these people.
Buildings made out of stone and bricks! Buildings that will last.
Your supporting of us has opened so many doors for us to
be able to help with the construction of these churches.
Here of some of the bricks that will be used to reconstruct this very church!
Here is Emanuel with the pastor of this church Pastor George.
We took time to pray over this building.
We also traveled to another village 30 minutes from the last village called Canala.
Canala was the same in the way of lacking very important things.
No running water, electricity, or schools/hospitals
But they stil have a church!
The following pictures are of this church and the pastor Aponali Francis and his wife.
Please pray for these churches, and also for the Aponali's wife
as she is suffering from a bad leg wound.
God can bring healing!

Continue our journey with us in prayer, and we will see a harvest reaped like none that this place has ever seen.
As I am typing this I hear the prayers to the muslim God coming from the mosques.
God wants to destroy the stronghold the devil has on this place.
He wants us to intercede for this place.
Please be praying every single day.
