We arrived in Dodoma, the government capital of Tanzania, which is about the center of the country of Tanzania, on Saturday, July 25th. The trip wasn't without problems! As you can see from this picture, we lost a tire along the way. The road was very bad and it took us 6 hours from Kondoa to Dodoma. We kept having to stop to hook the tail gate and re-tie some of the ropes. On about our third stop we noticed the missing tire, it wasn't just the tire gone, but the entire wheel hub, on we went very slowly.
Each district of Dodoma have a 5 acre plots to show different things. The district of Kondoa has the building in the background and plots of corn, mtama (grain sorghum), ulemi (finger millet), tomatoes, egg plant, mango and banana trees and other crops and fruits trees. They also plan to have cows, pigs, chickens, fish and goats on display. We will be showing the biogas generator, you can see the men taking it off the trailer (400 pounds of water and manure), solar cooker, storage of grains, how to make the water clean to drink using the sun, and baking a cake using a kerosene stove. We will also be handing out tracts on how to have a new live in the Spirit and stickers for children that say, Yesu anakupenda (Jesus loves you).
Pray for us as we have opportunities to share not only how to have a better life on earth, but how to have Eternal life in Jesus Christ. For opportunities to share our testimonies and why we are here, in the Kondoa district.
