How to Help
The goal of every mission work is to mature to the point that it can both support itself and also take on the responsibility of sharing the gospel with others in its culture. Short-term campaigns from America—as well as long-term American missionaries—do much evangelistic good, of course, but they’re not the most effective way to build culture-shaping local churches.
With that in mind, one of our primary goals in Tanzania is to train Tanzanians and other Africans to share the gospel with the people that only they can reach. Years ago we established the Andrew Connally School of Preaching to help accomplish that goal. This preaching school is named after Andrew Connally, who moved to Tanzania in the 1960s and established local congregations as well as a medical mission.
