June 2019 - 1st Morogoro Graduation:
After finishing in Mwanza, we flew back to Moshi and caught a bus for a 10-hour ride to the south, and arrived at Morogoro campus. Again, Pastor Tim taught Daniel and we were all excited for this inaugural graduating class. It was very exciting.

June 2019 - 1st Mwanza Graduation:
Our first graduating class at the Mwanza campus occurred June 14. It was a small class because we have not had a dormitory there, and we were incurring expenses to house students at guest houses. However, one of our ICM Board members presented the need for a dormitory to his church, and they supplied the funds to build a facility which accommodates 4 women and 16 men. Pastor Tim attended this final session, teaching Daniel, and dedicated the building at graduation.

Family Safari & Climb, May 2019:
Our sons had planned to visit later this year in October in order to climb Mt Kilimanjaro with Jim, but then our youngest son found out he and his wife were expecting with a due date of early October, so the trip was hurriedly changed to May. It was their first visit here, so we took some time off and took them on a quick safari before they climbed the mountain. They took what was designed to be a 7-day climb and completed it in 5, just because they could!

Dec 2018-Jan 2019 US Visit
We had a very brief visit in the US over the holidays and had a chance to see all of our family except Kyle. We were in Oklahoma, North Carolina, Florida, and California in a 30-day timespan! We also got to attend a missions conference in California, as well as have the Intensive Care Ministries Director and board members ordain Jim as a pastor. It was a very special month!
