Despite its problems and illnesses, Orthodoxy flourishes in Tanzania. In a joyful and touching atmosphere and with the blessing of Bishop Agathonikos of Arusha and Central Tanzania, baptisms were held at the Iringa Mission Center (Alexandrian Orthodox Church).

This is reported by orthodoxianewsagency.gr.

“The new parishioners, when leaving the font, thanked their brothers from Greece, who lovingly support the work of the mission, strengthening the new members of our Church in the blessed beginning of their lives!” — the missionary center says in its announcement.
