Kifula Lutheran Parish, Ugweno, Tanzania

Faith Lutheran Church is blessed to have a companion congregation, Kifula Lutheran Parish, in Ugweno, Tanzania. Kifula Lutheran Parish and Faith Lutheran Church have entered into a relationship of shared ministry of imani moja—one faith. We have shared our life and culture with Kifula through correspondence, pictures, and visits.

Janeth Graduates from Usangi Bible College

This is the ceremony where Janeth Mockray received her Evangelist Certificate from Usangi Bible College.  Usangi is about 7 miles from Kifula.  Janeth had been working as Parish Worker at Kifula, but now she is a full Evangelist.  Because they don't have a Parish Worker at Kifula now, Janeth will perform the duties of Parish Worker and Evangelist.  The young boy in the picture is Anderson and Janeth's youngest child.  His name is Israel, and he is 14 and in grade 6 this year.  

Anderson is now stationed at Dar es Salaam and is busy with his plumbing work.  It is a six hour bus ride to Kifula from Dar es Salaam.

2008 Mission Trip to Kifula

Pastor Dave and Linda Nerdig, Jonathan Nerdig and Mike Gaul are traveled to Tanzania in 2008. Their primary mission was to research cost-effective Internet communications between Kifula and Faith, finalize plans to dig wells, tour the office building and assess other building needs and open a bank account to allow reliable transfer of funds. The team also traveled to Kifula satellite churches to meet with as many people as possible to share the Gospel and bring back home the wonderful Tanzanian perspectives of faith.
