A Place of Worship in Iringa for International Travellers and Volunteers

Worship in Iringa post is a reminder to travellers about one of the key areas in a believer’s journey. As a traveller in another region, town or country, you want to enjoy the best the place has to offer, yet, be anchored in worship and fellowship with other believers. Be it you are travelling for a week or months, it might be easy to overlook the importance the consistency in fellowship. This makes most travellers exhausted, weary and sometimes drawn back after the summer holidays.

Why a place of Worship in Iringa when travelling?

Finding a place of worship when planning a journey, is as important and more to booking flights, and hotels with the best deals at the earliest. Keep connecting. Here I am, hoping that, if you ever visit Iringa, you will be able to join fellow believers in service and attendance; in word and communion, making the trip the best there is. With God and faith, surprises, miracles and blessings are a norm. You be that surprise, miracle and blessing to many people you will closely connect to, during these holidays and volunteer endeavours.

Why gather continuously in a place of worship?

As believers, the Church and vessels and parts of the Body of Christ, we depend on each other to be, become and grow. Ad these is why gatherings are still and will always be important on earth until the day Christ comes. Here are several Bible verses that speak about gathering, meetings, and fellowship among believers:

(a) Believers must continue to meet and support one another in faith.

  • Hebrews 10:24-25 “And let us consider how we may spur one another on toward love and good deeds, not giving up meeting together, as some are in the habit of doing, but encouraging one another—and all the more as you see the Day approaching.”

(b) God is present when believers gather in His name, and there is power in gatherings.

The power of unity, obedience, and faith brought together. Like light, one candlelight can shine in the dark but, a dozen of them do a better job together.

  • Matthew 18:20 “For where two or three gather in my name, there am I with them.”

(c) The early church devoted themselves to teaching, fellowship, and communal activities.

Also, they encouraged and supported one another in the community of believers. In addition, it is pleasant to live together in obedience to Christ, we build each other in faith, learning from each other in fellowship (edification of the church).

  • Acts 2:42 “They devoted themselves to the apostles’ teaching and to fellowship, to the breaking of bread and to prayer.”
  • 1 Thessalonians 5:11 “Therefore encourage one another and build each other up, just as in fact you are doing.”
  • Psalm 133:1 “How good and pleasant it is when God’s people live together in unity!”
  • 1 Corinthians 14:26 “What then shall we say, brothers and sisters? When you come together, each of you has a hymn, or a word of instruction, a revelation, a tongue or an interpretation. Everything must be done so that the church may be built up.”
  • Acts 20:7 “On the first day of the week we came together to break bread. Paul spoke to the people and, because he intended to leave the next day, kept on talking until midnight.”
  • Romans 12:4-5 “For just as each of us has one body with many members, and these members do not all have the same function, so in Christ we, though many, form one body, and each member belongs to all the others.”

The best part of this house serves a community of English-speaking believers from many different walks of life. And the unique strength lies in not having a pastor, which forces the diverse members to contribute to all aspects of church life. There are elders at the Church who oversee different activities as needed. So, each member is given a platform to serve and worship in different areas.
