Welcome to our blog!
We have journeyed from Canada, through England and Australia to settle in our new home in Tanzania - Maasai territory.

We are working with Vineyard Africa and also with African Enterprise to assist with training and empowering locals to establish sustainable lifestyles and ministry.

We will endeavour to keep you updated on all our experiences and adventures and would welcome your prayers for us on this challenging but quite amazing journey.

We fill you in on our daily life in Tanzania with the cultural differences we are noticing, plus our adventures in building relationships and learning Swahili.

keep in touch!

Love the Owens Family
