Scripture Favorites

From VSI literature: We loved you so much that we were delighted to share with you not only the Gospel of God but our lives as well, because you had become so dear to us. 1 Thessalonians 2:8

Gary's: Humble yourselves, therefore, under God’s mighty hand, that he may lift you up in due time. Cast all your anxiety on him because he cares for you. 1 Peter 5:6-7

Joanne's: But seek first his kingdom and his righteousness, and all these things will be given to you as well. Matthew 6:33

Tanzanian flag & patriotism

We finally retired the old tattered flag with a new national flag. Too bad there wasn't a breeze to unfurl it . . . It is against the law in Tanzania to own a national flag. You have to be a public organization with approved documentation to buy and fly it. When we share how flag waving is a common show of patriotism in the U.S. they say, "There are other ways to show that you love your country." So there you have it.

God bless you all, and God bless America,

Gary and Joanne
