Yesterday’s worship (October 2) was very special, including a nice message about worship (based in part of Jeremiah 23:23-24), prepared and delivered by one of our recent Form 6 graduates, who also happens to be a young […]

In 2022 we are going to celebrate the TWENTIETH ANNIVERSARY of THE LION OF JUDAH ACADEMY’s ministry (In Kiswahili the school is, “Simba wa Yuda Academy”). As we begin 2022, we’d like to give you just a glimpse into why the school exists, as well as the amazing miracles God […]
October 5, 2013, Salem Church, Waynesboro, Pennsylvania. Josephales Mtebe was ordained to the Christian ministry and granted ministerial credentials by the Evangelical Association.

Dear Friends, In ten days we’re off to Tanzania for our first visit in two years! We had a big trip and project planned last year but, as we all know, most of what we had anticipated in 2020 did not quite happen as expected! COVID, of course, remains a […]

COVID 19 has presented challenges worldwide, and Tanzania has not been exempted! Classes at The Lion of Judah Academy were allowed to resume in July (after several months of closure), and the second term has proceeded more or less as normal. But there have been lots of extra classes to […]

Were headed back to Tanzania tomorrow, July 2. We’ll be there about a month. This is an exciting time to be going back. We should have learned by now not to be so surprised when we experience moments of jaw-dropping Divine Serendipity. But the most amazing moments catch us so […]
It was early September, 1999. Lynn and I had been in Tanzania less than three months. I had recovered from my first (and most serious) bout with malaria…that was the time all the veteran missionaries told me I couldn’t possibly have malaria because I hadn’t been in Tanzania long enough […]
The adventure began on an October Sunday in 2001. For months – close to a year – we (Lynn and Hart Inlow) had been seeking God’s guidance about whether or not we should help our friends, Mtebe and Pili, start a school for the children of Nassa Theological College students. […]
