St. James Welcomes The Bishop of Tanzania



Three summers ago, the people of St. James Lutheran Church changed the lives of those who live more than 7,000 miles away. We sent two of our members as missionaries to Tanzania, bearing gifts that would help build shelter for those who had none,  



gifts that would provide school uniforms to children in need,


gifts that would provide cross necklaces and words of God's love during a week of VBS from our own children at St. James to those in Tanzania, 




 


gifts that would provide layettes for newborn babies and help to save their lives. 



This year, the people of Tanzania want to say thank you to us. They want to tell us how they are doing, and give us updates on the things that God is doing in their midst.



Join us in the Fellowship Hall for a welcoming meal for the Bishop from the Evangelical Lutheran Church in Tanzania on Saturday, June 8, at 5PM.
