Mpaka Missions Meetings Scheduled
Mpaka Mission Meetings Scheduled
by Melody Rockwell
"The children at St. Augustine’s, Mpaka, deeply touched our hearts. These orphans presented the most extreme need we witnessed while in Swaziland." —Rev. Barbara Schlachter, November 2004
Interested in building a school for orphans in Africa? Want to learn more about our beautiful, but tremendously challenged companion diocese of Swaziland? Mark your calendars to attend one of the informational meetings scheduled this fall on Sundays at 2 p.m.
+ November 13 ~~ St. Alban’s, 23rd & Zenith, Spirit Lake
+ November 20 ~~ St. Stephen’s, 223 East 4th Street North, Newton
+ December 4 ~~ Christ Church, 220 40th Street NE, Cedar Rapids [DATE CORRECTED]
Toni and Ron Noah, experienced missioners from Charles City, will be leading these sessions. Come. Immerse yourself in photos, music and the history, geography, culture and political scene of our sisters and brothers in Christ in Swaziland. Be briefed on our new diocesan mission tentatively scheduled for July 20 – August 5, 2006 to help with school construction at St. Augustine’s, Mpaka, Swaziland. The school, an anchor building providing basic education and a feeding program for children, will also serve as an HIV/AIDS education facility, church, community center, and medical clinic.
If you are discerning whether God is calling you to Swaziland or wonder how you might otherwise support this diocesan mission trip, plan on attending one of the fall introductory sessions. The Noahs will inform you about the purpose of the trip, what we anticipate we will do in Swaziland next summer, roughly what the trip will cost and the time commitment to build the mission team before departure to Africa… & more.
Look for information about the upcoming Mpaka Mission meetings at the Global Mission table at the Diocesan Convention on November 4-5. Or, contact Ron and Toni Noah at 641-228-8126 or harimau@thenoahs.net. To become a listed member [Free! No charge! No obligation!] on the Mpaka Mission informational e-mail exchange, contact Melody Rockwell at 319-854-7393 or mrockwrite@netins.net. Also, continue to check this space for updates on the trip.
