Hello everyone,
Everything is going well. John is planning on having me help minister to his church. Also, he is asking me to help out with
training pastors. I met his congregation Sunday. I was received warmly. It went very well.
Also, I have a chance to do some traveling to other cities and speak; however, the transportation is somewhat expensive.
The famous Masai warriors were in church Sunday. They're bringing more people next week just to get a look at me. Pastor Chambo is planning to return to U.S. in July. Love, John Paul

Helloooooooooooooo!!!!!!
Please forgive me for not staying in closer touch!!! Communication is a problem. John Chambo does not have internet and the computers shipped from America are not hooked up yet. They simply spent much more money on the container than they anticipated. Pastor Chambo is doing all he can to conserve the church finances. The man is really committed to bringing a revival to Mwanza. I am doing the Bible studies on Wednesdays and Fridays. I've written 11 sermons in 12 days! This week I'm going to begin speaking at other churches. I'm praying to speak the right messages. I'm also planning to return to Dar es Salaam soon. It will be a 3 day train trip. There are churches down there wanting me to come. I'm learning a lot from Pastor Chambo. He thinks I'm their John the Baptist sent with a message just before Jesus begins to work. Some absolutely incredible things have happened!!!!! If I could type faster I would tell you. The Lord is working!!!!!!!! By the way, I have to come clear into town to send any emails! I love you all so much, Take care, John Paul

Greetings,
As I told you on Sabbath things are going very well. John and I got invited yesterday to conduct a 5 day speaking engagement down by Mt. Kilimanjaro. I'm really enthused about going. I'm also preparing for the seminar this weekend. I love doing what I'm now doing... I believe He has called me here for a great purpose.

I'm back!!!!!! I'm making my weekly junket into town. It's not easy getting here!
The seminar went very well!!!!! So well in fact, that they want me to hold a seminar just for pastors. Many will be invited. They really liked my subject material!! I did the first sermon on surrendering your life to God. Then I continued the series on getting out of the boat in regard to many of the characters in the Bible. I spoke Fri. and Sat. nights plus I gave 3 sermons on Sunday. I put all my efforts into it but it was God who obviously made everything happen!!! It was one of the most moving experiences of my life!!!!!! John and I are still planning to do the 5 day engagement soon at Kilimanjaro. They're having power outages here so that’s been interesting to live with. Plus there have been some outbreaks of malaria. I'm working on FINALLY getting some pictures to you!!! Believe me that's a story in itself!!! Anyway, people are still talking about my name being on the mountain TWICE!!!! They truly believe it's a sign from God. And so do I!! It's REALLY WEIRD!!!! I will be in touch. Love always, John Paul John Paul's email (pdf) - March 10, 2006. John Paul's email (pdf) - March 20, 2006. John Paul's email (pdf) - March 30, 2006.
