Last week we met Carole,
this week I'd like you to meet Tammy.
Hi! I'm Tammy, and I serve the
Lord with my husband of 25 years in the country of Tanzania, East Africa. We
have three children. Our boys are now adults and living in America. My daughter
is a teenager and still living at home when she's not at missionary boarding
school. We have been church planting missionaries for 17 years. My primary
ministry over the years has been taking care of my husband and children. I had a
vision of what my ministry would look like as I got older, but the Lord had
something else in mind. I have chronic back pain, and the rutted roads cause me
to limit my time being out and about. However, the Lord has shown me that my
secondary ministry can mostly be done from my home. I informally disciple my
worker, Pendo. (How we live before someone who is in our home daily can have a
great impact.) I also hold monthly meetings for our pastor's wives. My desire is
to help them in their role as a pastor's wife. I've found that as I build
relationships with these women, they will come by, or text, asking for advice.
There have definitely been challenges over the years, but God has been FAITHFUL!
He is good - ALL THE TIME. I feel blessed with the privilege of serving my Lord.
