The SPF Young Adults Ministry is thrilled to announce that we hosted a team of missionaries from Youth for Christ (YFC) Tanzania from November 9th to 15th!

Below is a brief overview of the daily events during our mission week:
Sunday, November 10, 2024 The Tanzanian YFC team kicked off their ministry in our various centers by preaching and teaching the word. Their powerful messages resonated deeply with everyone present. In the afternoon, the team joined other SPF young adults for a hangout session at Mission Centre, where they had the opportunity to fellowship and bond with over 50 SPF young adults. This time of connection was invaluable, allowing for deeper relationships to form and for the Tanzanian team to understand the unique challenges and opportunities within our community. The day concluded with a sense of unity and a shared commitment to the mission ahead. The atmosphere was filled with joy and anticipation as we shared stories, played games, and enjoyed fellowship. The Tanzanian team members shared their experiences and testimonies, which were both inspiring and encouraging. It was a fantastic start to what would be a week full of impactful ministry.
Monday, November 11, 2024 In the afternoon, the team had the opportunity to minister and interact with children at Hope Homes in Kapseret, sharing the love and message of Christ with the residents.

Your hospitality made a significant difference, making the Tanzanian team feel welcomed and supported.
Tuesday, November 12, 2024 The YFC Tanzanian team, along with SPF young adults and members from the SPF E.T.S team, ministered at the Juvenile Children's Remand Centre.
