MORE SPORTS BONZANZA

SJUT track was once the host of many track and field events in the Dodoma Region. In preparation for the Bonanza the track was unearthed and clearing has begun. Small trees, grass and lots of glass and rocks where removed, still much to be done but the orginal concrete curbing is now visible! Chalk lines by the SJUT Student Government Sports & Games volunteers made it easy for the runner to stay on track!

"Hurdles" involved drinking a juice , followed by "bobbing for a lime" (above) and ....

you guessed it,.. threading the needle before spriting to the finish! Fun for all!

SJUT IN COMMUNITY

SJUT's Multipurpose Hall was the site of the reception for the new Anglican Archbishop of Tanzania, Valentino Mokiwa D.D., held Sunday May 25th.

The Hall was filled with Bishops, Priests, ACT staff, DCT staff, family and friends, SJUT Staff and Student Government representatives. All enjoying the lovely decorations and music provided by the choirs.

SJUT community outreach provides a great opportunity for the students to interact and be a part of the larger Anglican Community. The Maasai Choir was one of the three choirs to entertain the crowd.

One of the choirs from Dar Es Salaam also enriched the celebration reminding all that "...He shall reign forever and ever!" Wonderful to fill the air both inside and out with the Truth!
