It's a journey of the heart.

That's how Dr. Tim Miller of New Prague summed up a recent trip to Tanzania. He traveled to that African country with his wife, Deb, the Rev. Steve Trewartha and Ann Niedermayer, all members of Holy Trinity Lutheran Church in New Prague. They spent 19 days visiting different areas of the African nation. The majority of that time was spent at Holy Trinity's sister church in Mbuyini.
