Welcome to our Blog! What are the goals of "Africonnection"? To further the Kingdom. To help North American friends make a connection with the lives and experiences of their brothers and sisters in Africa. And to give North American friends an opportunity to partner with Africa Nazarene University as it supports the Kingdom through the Church of the Nazarene in Africa.

Thanks to Summit View and Tonganoxie Churches

Our thanks to Pastor Dan and Teresa Eller and NMI President Trula Smith at the Tonganoxie Church of the Nazarene and to Pastor Dale and Kathy Jones and NMI President Gail Philip at the Summit View Church of the Nazarene for being our hosts the last two weeks. We continue to enjoy meeting and hearing the stories of Nazarene pastors and laypeople, and experiencing the WIDE variety of people, worship styles and missions of Nazarene churches.

Pastor Dan and Teresa of the Tonganoxie Church have an amazing story of God's patience and redemption in their lives. In his weekday job, Pastor Dale of the Summit View Church is the Director of the Office of Research for the Church of the Nazarene. It was fascinating to hear him talk about some of the information that is available, and some of the studies his office is doing to provide monitoring and decision-making information to the global church.

Thanks again to both of these churches, NMI Presidents and pastoral couples for their kindness and hospitality to us in the last two weeks. We appreciate your commitment to missions.
