Hand in Hand Global Mission Support Blog Digest

This "blog digest" is brought to you by the ELCA Global Mission Support team. Here you will find posts and re-posts by ELCA missionaries, ELCA Global Mission churchwide staff, and other friends.

Karibu! Welcome!

Posted on April 6, 2009 by Hand In Hand

Memories of warm and generous welcome stay with me long after a visit to Tanzania with a group of a dozen ELCA communicators. Each person who received us shook our hands, person by person, saying “Karibu! You are welcome! You are most welcome!”

I hope this “blog digest” will be a place of welcome for you and your pictures, your stories, and your interest in ELCA Global missions, ministries, missionaries, and companions. I hope you will find “information and inspiration” in new posts and re-posts by ELCA Global Mission churchwide staff, ELCA missionaries, and other friends.

You can help launch the Hand in Hand Global Mission Support Blog Digest:

  • Sign up to receive postings in your e-mail. (It’s easy! Click the link on the right-hand column.) You are likely to have to fish the first such forwards out of your quarantine/spam limbo.
  • Affirm someone’s post by adding a comment.
  • Offer a possible post; send me an ELCA Global Mission-related photo and caption, devotion, congregation connection idea, essay, or re-post from your blog or Website.

Karibu! You are welcome. You are most welcome!
