The celebrations were held in Iringa Region, where Rev. Robert<br \/>\n&amp; Dixie Brown, our first missionaries, resided and planted a church.<br \/>\nWe all gathered there to celebrate with matching banners, worship,<br \/>\nand feasting (See bottom photo). So far we have more than sixty<br \/>\nchurches in Tanzania and are continuing to grow.<\/p>\n<h2>Conferences Attended:<\/h2>\n<p>We attended and spoke to the attendees at the Youth and Women\u2019s<br \/>\nconferences in Tanzania. We also attended the 28th General<br \/>\nConference of the IPHC in Orlando, Florida. After that, we traveled to<br \/>\nHarare, Zimbabwe to attend and speak to the leaders in attendance<br \/>\nat the fire Conference.<\/p>\n<h2>IPHC-TZ Center:<\/h2>\n<p>Perseverance is the one word I can say about working, praying, and<br \/>\nseeking a building permit here in Tanzania. Please keep praying and<br \/>\ntrusting with us for the permits to come through.<\/p>\n<h2>People to People:<\/h2>\n<p>We are grateful to those who contribute towards the PTP Feeding Program. This ministry continues to be<br \/>\na blessing to many street kids who come to hear the Word of God, and thereafter eat the food prepared for<br \/>\nthem. We surely believe that the seeds of the Word we plant in them will grow and bear fruit, but we do not<br \/>\nknow when. We also would like to thank those who have continued to give towards PTP child support. This<br \/>\nministry has been a blessing to many pastor\u2019s children for buying school supplies.<\/p>\n<h2>Appreciation:<\/h2>\n<p>With each of these accomplishments, we were able to preach the Word strongly, and God\u2019s people were<br \/>\nblessed.

Muchas de nuestras iglesias en el sur de \u00c1frica tienen pisos de concreto, sin techos, ventanas b\u00e1sicas, ba\u00f1os exteriores, sin aire acondicionado y p\u00falpitos artesanales hechos con madera de desecho. Sin embargo, las personas all\u00ed est\u00e1n llenas del gozo del Se\u00f1or: danzar, cantar y dar testimonio de la provisi\u00f3n y la grandeza de Dios.<\/p>\r\n<p align=\"JUSTIFY\"><strong>\u00a0\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\r\n<p align=\"JUSTIFY\"><strong>GRADUACI\u00d3N Y BODA<\/strong><\/p>\r\n<p align=\"JUSTIFY\">Un punto culminante de nuestro permiso ha sido asistir a la graduaci\u00f3n de la escuela secundaria de nuestra nieta, Shaan Delport. <a href=\"https:\/\/iphc.org\/missions\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2017\/11\/Delport-3.jpg\"><img class=\"size-medium wp-image-1694 alignleft\" src=\"https:\/\/iphc.org\/missions\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2017\/11\/Delport-3-235x300.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"235\" height=\"300\" \/><\/a> Otro ha sido que Joe se haya casado con nuestro nieto, Trysten Delport, y su bella novia, Rachel Lowry Delport.<\/p>\r\n<p align=\"JUSTIFY\"><strong>NUESTRO VIAJE MISIONERO<\/strong><\/p>\r\n<p align=\"JUSTIFY\">La \u00fanica cosa que ha sostenido nuestro viaje como misioneros es el llamado de Dios. Durante veintinueve a\u00f1os, hemos experimentado la gu\u00eda y direcci\u00f3n de Dios en nuestras vidas. \u00c9l nunca nos ha fallado, independientemente de los desaf\u00edos que hemos tenido que enfrentar. Los catorce a\u00f1os que pasamos en Zimbabwe fueron muy gratificantes ya que invertimos en la vida de l\u00edderes, personas y ni\u00f1os. Fue durante ese tiempo, Dios nos llam\u00f3 al centro y norte de Mozambique a un pa\u00eds destrozado y personas heridas, que hab\u00edan sufrido 17 a\u00f1os de guerra civil. Este fue uno de los momentos m\u00e1s gratificantes de nuestro ministerio, ya que las personas recibieron a Jes\u00fas como su ancla.<\/p>\r\n<p align=\"JUSTIFY\">Nos pidieron que nos mudemos en 2002 para servir como Directores Regionales para \u00c1frica del Sur, supervisando el trabajo en seis pa\u00edses. En los \u00faltimos 15 a\u00f1os, hemos experimentado un movimiento fenomenal de Dios en esta regi\u00f3n. Los siguientes son algunos de los puntos destacados recientes:<\/p>\r\n<p align=\"JUSTIFY\">\u2022 La APS sudafricana estableci\u00f3 su duod\u00e9cima conferencia en 2016<\/p>\r\n<p align=\"JUSTIFY\">\u2022 La Conferencia General de Botswana tuvo una exitosa conferencia anual de 2017 en Mahalapye, Botswana.

Tambi\u00e9n se est\u00e1 estableciendo en otras \u00e1reas del pa\u00eds.<\/p>\r\n<p align=\"JUSTIFY\">\u2022 En junio de 2016, celebramos la dedicaci\u00f3n de nuestra iglesia en Maputo, Mozambique.

Cada una de las 12 conferencias se ha comprometido a que al menos cinco iglesias participen en el programa. Esto significa que habr\u00e1 60 centros de capacitaci\u00f3n.<\/p>\r\n<p align=\"JUSTIFY\">\u2022 La Conferencia del Sur de Mozambique licenci\u00f3 a 22 l\u00edderes j\u00f3venes, y los desafi\u00f3 a convertirse en plantadores de iglesias en las ciudades y pueblos de la regi\u00f3n.<\/p>\r\n<p align=\"JUSTIFY\">\u2022 Swazilandia ha visto un crecimiento fenomenal de la iglesia. En ocho a\u00f1os, nuestros misioneros sudafricanos, el reverendo Xolani y Thembeka Ngema, han plantado seis iglesias.
