Not in the Tenbury Team this time! The Tenbury Team-Maramba Deanery Link Committee is delighted to let you know that Revd William Mbuji, the Area Dean in Maramba, has been promoted by the Bishop of Tanga, to be the Dean of St Michael’s Cathedral Church in Korogwe. William has been a wonderful co-ordinator of our Link in Maramba, and it is his enthusiasm and commitment that has enabled our Link to grow into a true friendship. The new Bishop of Tanga, Maimbo Mndolwa, obviously thinks a lot of William as well as he is moving him to a senior post in his diocese. William will begin his ministry at the Cathedral on 26th December. William’s successor in Maramba is Father Francis Shemzigwa, who is currently assistant Parish Priest of Christ the King, Handeni. William has been involved in the process of appointing his successor, so we can be confident that he will have the right skills and gifts to continue the development of our Link.
Please remember William and his wife, Rebecca, and all their family in your prayers as they prepare to move to Korogwe. Please also remember our friends in Maramba Deanery as they say goodbye to a much loved priest and friend.
