"Joint Letter ..."

We offer this letter, authored jointly by the Field Leader of TEAM in Zimbabwe and myself, in a spirit of appreciation and with deep gratitude for the privilege it has been to lead the formation and early establishment of the ANESU Partnership.

The letter was written in August, in lieu of timely release, immediately following the assessment of the progress of the ministry of the ANESU Partnership.

We offer it here in support of the content of our most recent Newsletter.

We look forward to constructive dialogue with TEAM in Wheaton, Illinois upon our return to North America.

We esteem our TEAM Zimbabwe co-workers highly. We consider it a privilege, after more than three decades of ministry under TEAM, to contemplate working alongside TEAM in Zimbabwe in a shared response.

We look forward to seeing how God will ordain our on-going, albeit adjusted working relationship in the face of the tremendous challenge represented by those infected, affected and at risk by HIV and AIDS in Zimbabwe.

The task is enormous. It requires great sensitivity, commitment, creativity and cooperation. In God's real Kingdom work, there are no competitors, only co-labourers. We respect and appreciate our TEAM-Mates in Zimbabwe, and are committed to nurturing the good personal and working relationship we enjoy with them.

Please pray for TEAM Zimbabwe's leadership as it adjusts and leads ANESU into the future God has planned for it. We look forward to standing side-by-side one day as we look back on what God was pleased to have accomplished through us together.

Sincerely,

Bud Jackson
