Our Story.

We are the Foltzwagen, Nathan and Tiffany Foltz, we are Baptist Bible Fellowship Missionaries to the country of Tanzania since May of 2011.  We believe God designed our individual path to prepare us to come together and fulfill His calling for us as a couple.  God has placed a special burden in our hearts for the people of Tanzania, and we desire to deliver the HOPE of Jesus Christ.

As of now we are in the city of Arusha in northern Tanzania working with a local church.  Our current status is about learning and preparing in the Tanzanian culture alongside another missionary as they continue with church planting.  
 
"Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life:
no man cometh unto the Father, but by me." (John 14:6)

The country of tanzania.

Tanzania is a model country of socialism, from its government to the most simple dealings.  It is a country rampant with corruption and deceit, stealing away any trust that might have been there for the people.  The people are hard working, but still live day to day; with a 40-50% unemployment rate the country just makes it.  Most of the country makes a living on agriculture, while another large portion works with the tourism sector of Tanzania. 

Tanzania is a beautiful country with God's handiwork written all over each region of the country.  But does the country even know God exists? Much of the people do not know God, and if they do, they believe that good works is what saves and not the blood of Jesus. The peoples' hope is found in fear.  Fear of the government, fear of the false gods (Allah, The Catholic Church, witch-doctors, etc.) and the fear of death itself.  As with all people of the earth, they need a REAL Hope, and that hope is found only in Jesus Christ.
