For the first time since our Tanzania Partnership began in 2001, our annual journey to visit our partners in Tungamalenga, Makifu, and Usolanga Parishes was cancelled. We describe our partnership as Bega Kwa Bega, the Swahili phrase that means shoulder to shoulder. We name three pillars of our companionship: prayer, presence, and projects. All of these imply being together…or do they?

Did you know that we have youth in Dakota County who are facing homelessness today? Host homes can offer stability and shelter during a difficult time in a young person’s life. Volunteer hosts are a community solution providing a temporary safe home and food to help meet basic needs. The YMCA connects youth with host homes and assists the youth with setting and achieving goals. For information, contact Jesse at Jesse.Mamaril@ymcamn.org.
