DESCRIPTION:\nKimberly Blair shared at church on Sunday\, April 19 about he
 r missions involvement in Tanazania\, Africa and her upcoming trip this su
 mmer (June 25 - July 9). It was an amazing story. If you weren't there\, b
 e sure to read "The Details" below.\n\n\nKimberly prayed that God would en
 able her to raise her full support ($3\,500)\, so that she could help her 
 sister and best friend raise theirs. God answered her prayer within two we
 eks!\n\n\n\nThe good news is that most of her sister's support has come in
 \, so Kimberly is now focused on helping her best friend raise $3\,500 to 
 get to full support.\n\n\n\nIf you'd like to help\, you can give online at
  https://www.goodnewschurchga.com/give (on the drop down\, click on MISSIO
 NS).\n\n\n\nP.S. The mountain in the background of the first photo is Mt. 
 Kilimanjaro. The village where Kimberly and the team are going sits at the
  base of the mountain.\n\n\n\n-----------------------\n\n\n\nTHE DETAILS\n
 \n\n\nKimberly shared that\, after spending 14 years as a stay-at-home mom
  (which is a in itself a mission field)\, she went back to teaching and wa
 s hired at Perimeter Christian School (PCS). Kimberly begin hearing about 
 a school in Tanzania that PCS helped support. Our own Ken Graves was part 
 of the first trip to purchase the land and help develop a vision for this 
 school. Kimberly desperately wanted to go but knew with young children\, i
 t was not the right time. Finally\, in 2023\, God opened the door for her 
 to go. It was an amazing experience!\n\n\n\nTeachers from PCS have been go
 ing for over 20 years to train\, equip\, and support the teachers\, with s
 ome PCS teachers even staying and teaching.\n\n\n\nThis is amazing... Stud
 ents in Tanzania take a test in fourth and seventh grade. If they fail\, t
 heir schooling is over. Before PCS got involved\, only three students had 
 ever passed the test. Since PCS began training teachers\, not one student 
 has failed the test! Wow!\n\n\n\nGetting into our school there is like the
  golden ticket out of poverty. The students get a Bible based education ta
 ught by loving teachers\, lots of curriculum and resources\, and two meals
  a day while there. That is sometimes the only meals those children get.\n
 \n\n\nFor the first week of Kimberly’s upcoming trip\, they’ll do work
 shops and training for the teachers. During the second week when the child
 ren are on campus\, Kimberly and the missions team will mentor teachers by
  observing their lessons\, giving feedback\, and modeling teaching by orga
 nizing and teaching lessons and giving ideas for using the supplies that t
 hey’re bringing. Would you believe that a pencil is a prized commodity! 
 Kimberly’s team will be bringing plenty of pencils\, and the children wi
 ll feel like it’s Christmas!\n\n\n\nKimberly’s team and PCS partners w
 ith UBORA (a non-profit ministry that Perimeter Church helped launch with 
 this ministry to Tanzania and education as its primary focus). UBORA has p
 urchased more land to build a secondary STEM school and construction has b
 egun! They had to start by building a wall to keep the elephants out! The 
 school there is having such great success\, that Tanzanian government offi
 cials have begun moving to the area to have their children attend the scho
 ol!\n\n\n\nKimberly shared that the opportunity to worship and teach with 
 these amazing people is one of the greatest experiences of her life. After
  all the mission trips she’s done\, this is the one where she feels like
  God is able to use the teaching abilities He gave her to make a true diff
 erence\, telling children about Him and helping them rise above the situat
 ion they are in and hopefully become leaders in the village where they are
 .\n\n\n\nKimberly’s sister\, Alissa\, is a sixth-grade science teacher\,
  and this will be her first trip. Kimberly’s best friend\, Elizabeth\, i
 s a music teacher and is making a return trip. In fact\, Elizabeth was the
  first music teacher to go and impacted their program so much that now the
 y have started an actual music class!\n\n\n\nAlissa and Elizabeth both tea
 ch in public schools and are not able to send letters to their students’
  families\, so Kimberly knew it would be much more difficult for them to r
 aise their support. Now that Kimberly is fully funded\, she wants to be ab
 le to help them raise support. That’s where Good News Church comes in\, 
 and we can help!\n\n\nAgain\, if you'd like to help\, you can give online

 IONS).\n
