Friends Return

          The Miller family returned to Tanzania on Friday after a six-month-long furlough in the States. Josh and Amy’s four children, Hannah, Abby, Naomi, and Ezekiel are delighted to be reunited with their Mavuno friends. Josh Miller oversaw finances and bookkeeping for two years prior to their furlough. They are now hoping to stay for three more years to continue bookkeeping and also to train someone to take it over when they leave.



We are so thankful to have the Millers back.

An Invaluable Guest!

         This week we had the privilege of inviting Mavuno’s latest visitor, Julie Probst, out on the campus. Julie has been working as a missionary with AIM for the past two years, based out of Uganda. 
           Before coming to Africa, she worked in the inner city for six years as a teacher of children with disabilities. She received her Master’s Degree in Special Education and now uses her valuable talents to train village churches how to care for those who are disabled or have special needs.  She also focuses on some individual missionary children.
           We are so thankful that Julie could help us make a game plan to help two of our Mavuno children who have some special needs. 
Esther, Julie and Sammy
