Praying for Tanzania Earthquake survivors as they face task of rebuilding

Mon, Sep 12, 2016

Join us to continue praying for the people of Bukoba, Tanzania as they recuperate from the a magnitude 5.9 earthquake that struck on Saturday evening.

Join us to continue praying for the people of Bukoba, Tanzania as they recuperate from the a magnitude 5.9 earthquake that struck on Saturday evening.

We extend our prayers to our partners, Saint Augustine University whose buildings were seriously affected, to Catholic Sisters serving in the region, particularly our own Sister Tryphina Burcahrd, SST. Mother House for the Sisters of saint Therese, Bukoba has been destroyed and many people are deeply are affected. We are united with God’s people in Bukoba at this very difficult time.
