Location: Mwanza, Tanzania
Our Vision:
We are called to Tanzania to make disciples by:
Caring for the needs of the most vulnerable children
Serving and equipping growing urban churches
Ministry Focus:
We will be serving with Villages of Hope Tanzania, an organization that empowers vulnerable children to break free from the cycle of systemic poverty. By providing education, healthcare, nutritious food, and the hope of Jesus, these children are given the opportunity to thrive. Our role will include supporting the national leadership team and assisting the director with on-the-ground needs.
We will also be partnering with Petra City Church, an urban church plant. Tanzania is experiencing rapid urbanization as people flock to cities in search of a better future. Strong urban churches are essential to meeting the spiritual needs of these growing populations. While many seek economic opportunity, the greatest need is the hope and salvation found in Jesus.
Ministry History:
After visiting Zambia in 2022 and South Africa in 2024, we witnessed both deep poverty and significant spiritual need. These experiences stirred in us a deep desire to share God’s love in tangible ways. Our calling is anchored in Isaiah 61:1:
"The LORD has anointed me to bring good news to the poor; he has sent me to bind up the brokenhearted, to proclaim liberty to the captives..."
Since graduating from Vanguard College in 2016, Adrian has served in multiple church leadership roles, including youth and children's ministry, associate pastor, and lead pastor. Keristan holds a diploma in music and a certificate in early childhood education. She has worked as both a dental assistant and a preschool teacher, while also serving in various volunteer roles in worship, children's, and compassionate ministries.
Prayer Requests:
That we would reach our financial support goal and be able to launch early next year.
That Petra City Church would continue to grow in health, strength, and spiritual vitality.
