“Learning the local language and culture is paramount when ministering in a new country and culture. Intercede for new members of our team to grasp the Swahili language and have a desire to go deeply as they learn so they will be able to develop long-lasting friendships and have an impact for the gospel in Tanzania. As the Theological Education Team, we need to be able to teach in Swahili as well as write curriculum in that language. Ask God to give this new family the perseverance and patience needed to push forward in their language learning. May He bless their learning and provide them opportunities to share the gospel in Swahili and see fruit from their labors.” “After this I looked, and behold, a great multitude that no one could number, from every nation, from all tribes and peoples and languages, standing before the throne and before the Lamb, clothed in white robes, with palm branches in their hands, and crying out with a loud voice, ‘Salvation belongs to our God who sits on the throne, and to the Lamb!'” (Revelation 7:9-10 ESV).
