We are making plans for a mission trip to Tanzania from the Mid-South District in 2021. We have a Mission team from Christ the King Memphis who will be leaving Memphis at the end of May 2021 returning home on June 10 and a second team from the Nashville area who will be leaving on June 10 returning home on June 24th.
The trips will consist of outreach and church planting in rural villages of the Southeast of Lake Victoria Diocese (SELVD) and safari into the Serengeti and Ngoro Ngoro Crater National parks after the mission.

The SELVD is one of the fastest growing Diocese of the Lutheran Church of Tanzania and the Mid-South District has been blessed to be able to work with this group of fine Christians. The district has been involved in annual mission trips where we go to an area of the Diocese that has had no or little exposure to the Gospel message because of its locations. Financially we have sent $12,500 to the diocese to help them train Pastors and Deaconesses at the Makala training center in Negezi. This training is conducted 4 times a year by professors from Fort Wayne and by theologians in Tanzania. The district also sends $12,500 to help pay for Pastors from the SELVD to come to Fort Wayne for advanced degree education.
Mid-South District members have help the SELVD in some of the following ways; participated in mission trips outreach and church planting, Pastors have taught at the Negezi training center, lay-people have taught at Lutheran secondary schools, nurses have worked at clinics, conducted eye clinics. District members have helped raise money for school dorms and facilities at the Mwadui Lutheran Secondary school, have donated laptops and books, have raised money to help albino children and youth and have helped work to develop a technical training school for secondary youth.
