Life in Pemba
We have been in Pemba for ten days now starting chapter four of four of our adventure in Africa. The center here is multi-faceted involving 160 children living here full time, a mission school of 140 people lasting three months twice a year, a clinic, feeding programs, widows program and lots and lots of village people being fed both physically and spiritually. In short this is an African missions “factory”. It is also a “faith factory”. No funds are solicited, no debt. The stories of provision are incredible. For readers of George Mueller, I refer to the Bakers as “George Mueller on steroids”.
Anyone who feels called to investigate Africa, this is a great place to get exposed to multiple areas. Housing costs are by donation. In addition when you staying at the visitors center, you get exposed to the most interesting people from all around the globe. Our current dorm mates are from Venezuela and South Africa. During a recent pastors conference here we also had the chance to get to know many pastors who are in charge of their provinces. Current estimates are 7000 plus Iris churches in Mozambique. Iris is in 19 different countries.
During the missions school outreaches to the bush go on every week. More on that later. Bye for now.
