A sweet family surrendered to the Lord

This family has been so active in our ministries here in Arusha.  Baba and Mama Paulo are such sweet people and good parents.  They love the Lord and God called Baba Paulo a year ago to preach the gospel.  He was called to Morogoro to pastor the church there.  They are thrilled to go but on Sunday, His commission service, we all had tears.  The picture tell you that the kids were a little sad but all are ready and happy to go to their "Ur" to spread the gospel.  God has called them to a new area, a new weather, a new home, but they are ready to follow the Lord and obey His call on their lives. 

We are praying God will bless them with souls!  We will miss them but our best busy people are who God calls.  We need to train and then release them to God's will, which may include them going to a new city, new state or a new country to spread the gospel of Jesus Christ. 

Here are the girls, Eliza, Neema, and Agnes with their teacher and friend, Mama Sabina. 
Here is Baba and Mama Paulo with two good friends, Filberto on the left and Abraham on the right.  The blue outfits are from a choir they are both in.  They sang for the last time with the choir that Baba Paulo started a few years ago.  They did a superior job with the song.  We will miss them.  They have been an important part of our ministry in Arusha but now the Lord has called them to another ministry.  May God richly bless them in Morogoro.
