Some photos of Zanzibar

The beauty of Zanzibar is absolutely breath taking.  We will forever be thankful that God brought us to this unique little island to witness the great things He's doing all over the world.

Our first ministry point was Chuini just north of the island's capital, Stone Town.  The pastor we stayed at has a spice farm and we helped out on the farm for a day.  Unfortunately it started to rain (like it does almost every day on Zanzibar).  While we were waiting for the rain to clear up one of the workers quickly made each one of us an amusing hat to wear.  The Zanzibaris are extremely skilled in that way!

Us working on the Spice farm...

Visiting a local Zanzibari church is a must for every visitor to the island!  They are so hungry for Christ and for the Word and the churches are, like most African churches, alive and on fire!

This is any Global Challenger's dream campsite!  This was our home for our first week in Zanzibar in Chuini.

We were blessed with a boat trip on our last day on the island and we even got to see a big school of dolphins.  Being the adventurous people we are, we jumped in the water and swam in between the dolphins!!!  What an amazing experience and what a way to end our journey to the amazing Zanzi!
