FEBRUARY-MARCH
For February and March, we planned for six All African Conferences of which we managed to do five. Sanare did Habbakuk in Hanang, Mwaisaka did Timothy at Maramba, Mdimi is going to Kibaigwa to introduce ECLEA and go through the summary of our main subject courses. Instead of Songwe and Mbeya where we did not go, Sanare went to Magara where he did James, and I am just coming back from West Kilimanjaro where I did Biblical Theology.

In 2022 when we started we had six teachers who run three classes. 2023 wo doubled both no of classes as well as number of teachers from three to six classes and six to twelve teachers respectively, losing one teacher and interpreter, brother Michael Nyangusi who passed away, made us finish last year with eleven teachers. We have ten classes this year and sixteen teachers, this means we have added four classes and five teachers.

As our bible school is concerned, we have a monthly program of one week in eacr class doing two subjects then three other weeks researching and writing as post session assignment of the studied subjects.

I taught Biblical Theology and Expository Preaching at Arusha and Tanga respectively. Lazaro went to Maramba with James and Jonnah, Mdimi was in Mwanza and now going to Dodoma for the same. Sanare in Mbulu while Julius in Magara. Bishop Sheggar is on his way to Katesh, where he will teach Biblical Marriage and Forgiveness and Reconciliation starting tomorrow. Also Bishop Sumaye for Riroda, Anthony Mwaisaka and Kelvin for Horohoro with 1. Timothy and James respectively.
We always have fixed programs for our classes in terms of weeks from Monday to Saturday, being first week of the month second week, third and fourth week, but this time we are skipping the fourth week of March and the first week of April due to Passover eve. We have many classes this week we will also have many classes the second week of April as we will skip the first week.

Good enough is that, with your facilitation and our means, we managed to do all ten classes we planned plus five All African conferences, which means we missed one conference. Our team is exited as they themselves learn when teaching, they have their own testimony as well as testimonies from students they teach. We are working on keep on taking these ten classes to the end for glory of Jesus.

Blessing to you and all ECLEA supporters.
