This past Friday, Justin, Dylan and Jonathan spent their day ripping out the old, overgrown shrubs and small trees in the Shantz Church flowerbed, replacing them with smaller plants, and mulching them. It gave the guys a good idea of what the experience of working together in Shirati would be like! 3 weeks remaining!

After church on June 14, the team and their families came together for one final meeting pre-departure. Details were confirmed, questions were answered, and excitement built! Less than a month away!
On June 7, 2015, Shantz Church and the Shirati 2015 team held a fundraiser for missional funds over coffee hour. The different team members mixed and mingled with those in attendance, while enjoying a warm cup of coffee or a fresh cinnamon bun. In the end, we raised $1,200 in donations! Thanks to everyone who donated!
On May 15, Justin, Nathan and Jonathan visited a church member's farm to assist with transplanting some flowers, as well as harvesting spinach. One step closer to Shirati!
