Kiomboi Bible Institute

-

We traveled to Kiomboi for the day, and were greeted with the customary warm Tanzania welcome. A highlight of the day included Pastor Glenn teaching a class of eager seminary and religion students using his book recently translated into Swahili by Pastor Mpumpa, The students were very appreciative of Pastor Glenn’s teaching. Mark was able to check out the computers donated by Mount Olive in 2018. They were in good working order, though accessing the internet continues to be a challenge. We returned to Singida for the night.

Of the five Travelers, only Mark had previous experience with the school, and he told us later that he was very concerned about what we would find.  In yet another example of the Suprising Blessings we had on this trip, we found the Hull School very, very healthy and vibrant -- and asking for help because of how much it has grown. A bit of history.  Many years ago, when the school was a school for girls, Mount Olive had had a strong relationship with the school.  It housed around 30 girls, and Mount Olive members paid for the construction of the Dining Hall (among other things.)  Here is that Dining Hall. The school hit hard times, the relationship with Mount Olive was broken for a while, and several years ago, the school found itself with only nine students. The headmaster of the school
