A team of 13 ICM Vision Trip travelers from all over the U.S. are on the verge of departure to the exotic African nation of Tanzania! We leave Tuesday August 25 and will arrive at the airport closest to Mt. Kilimanjaro, the continent's highest and most famous mountain. While we won't be scaling the heights of this dormant volcano, we do expect God to take us to grand spiritual heights as we get a bird's eye view of what He's doing in Tanzania. Our journey will take us to many rural churches deep in the villages of the African Bush. These churches were built through a ministry partnership with ICM. We expect our hearts will be touched as we see first hand how God is nurturing His flock in Africa. Later, we'll board a boat to cross a portion of the Indian Ocean headed for the ancient island of Zanzibar. With it's slave trade history and 90+ % Muslim population, Zanzibar is still home to 14 rural churches built in partnership with ICM. Our team will worship with the brothers and sisters on Zanzibar and witness the mighty work of God as He calls this island nation to Himself! Please pray for our team as we prepare for departure to Africa this Tuesday. We also invite you to return to this site for frequent updates as we get a glimpse of God's vision for Africa on this latest ICM Vision Trip!
God bless you and the team on your journey!
Added this blog to my Google reader..eagerly following and praying for the team and my dear friend, Janice on this trip. Expecting updates on what God is doing in Tanzania and Zanzibar and in your hearts. Thank you each for the example of living for HIS purposes, not our own. Enjoy the privilege of place and perspective God has provided each of you and thanks for sharing.
Jo! Thank you for your prayers! We felt covered the entire time~~ there were so many things that we experienced which could only have been from God. Looking forward to sharing some stories.
Blessings....
