http://www.bct-tanzania.net/ We were so excited to host our friends, Pastor Arnold Manase, President of the Baptist Convention of Tanzania, and our old friend, Pastor Michael Nhonya, General Secretary of the Baptist Convention of Tanzania. These pastors are now our guest members at Stoney Ridge Baptist Church... So whenever they are here they have a place to call home. |
We welcome our sister churches to join in our support for this work, which involves helping educate pastors across Tanzania and at the seminary, and to help the Gospel be preached & provide more Bibles and Bible curriculum, as well as do community development projects together with their churches. We will continue working together with them on new work together in Tanzania, East Africa. Please join us as we continue to support and pray for their work in Christ! http://www.cdresearchcenter.com/ Is another link to look at. It is a NEW development startup work and is being built up and was just started in April 2019. |
