Jerry was saved at a young age. He surrendered to preach at a tent meeting under the preaching of Tony Hutson. Jerry’s parents answered the call to missions in 1993 and arrived on the field of Tanzania in 1995. While in Africa, Jerry was always involved in the ministry by teaching out in the villages, public schools, Bible Clubs, and Sunday school. He also worked on the evangelistic puppet team that has seen hundreds of people saved. When Jerry was seventeen years old, he surrendered to go back to Tanzania. God’s calling was clear during a sermon at Pastors’ School. Soon after surrendering, he enrolled at Hyles-Anderson College and graduated in 2007. While attending college, he captained a bus route and taught a boys Sunday school class. He also worked at the college for two of the years he was enrolled.

Rachel was born and raised in a Baptist preacher’s home (Dr. Larry Brown). At the age of nine with the help of her mother, she received Christ. As a young person, Rachel surrendered to do whatever God wanted. In February of 2003, her father hired her as the full-time secretary of their church, Marion Avenue Baptist Church. She worked in this position until September of 2005, when she enrolled in college. Jerry and Rachel met at college and began dating. While dating, Rachel was able to visit Tanzania, and after a time of praying and seeking God’s will, she knew that the mission field is what God had in store for her.

Jerry and Rachel were married on July 6, 2007. On November 5, 2010, the Lord blessed them with a son, David Jerry Wyatt; and on June 13, 2012, they were blessed with a second child, Kate Dianne.

Jerry is currently the pastor of Faith Baptist Church Morogoro. He and his wife have served the Lord in this ministry since arriving on the field in 2009, and in 2012 Jerry became pastor. The Lord has truly blessed this ministry with the inception of an orphan home in 2013 and many other new ministries. Pray as God continues to work in this truly needy field of Tanzania.

We are Independent Baptist missionaries to Tanzania, East Africa. Jerry is the pastor of the Faith Baptist Church in Morogoro. Our ministries include church planting, Bible clubs, public school ministries, an orphanage, deaf ministry and evangelistic outreaches. We have been in Tanzania since January of 2009. Please join us in prayer as we do the work that the Lord has called us to do.

  • Jerry and Rachel Wyatt III Prayer Letter: Stepping into a New YearSMITE

    We are so thankful for the impact of SMITE, a weeklong camp designed to give our teenagers intensive training on how to lead Bible Clubs and clearly witness to children. Each morning, the teens attended training sessions, and each afternoon, they were sent out into different areas to put into practice what they learned by actively helping in Bible Clubs. This year, 40 of our teenagers enrolled in SMITE, and throughout the week, nearly 600 children attended the evening Bible Clubs. We also saw 207 children trust Christ throughout the week. We are especially grateful for Bro. Mark Holmes and his daughter Victoria for coming to assist, along with Pastor Adawela, who traveled from Nigeria to be a part of this ministry.

    Vision Clinic

    We are praising the Lord for an incredible Vision Outreach in which around 2,000 people came to the church property to receive glasses, medication, or a vision checkup. Through our partnership with MMO, people were offered free vision care, and each individual was personally witnessed to by a member of our church. By God’s grace, more than 900 people trusted Christ during this outreach, not only receiving clearer physical sight but also gaining spiritual sight for eternity.

    Insurance Sunday

    The Sunday following the medical clinic, we held what we call “Insurance Sunday,” where we drew names for 20 families to receive medical insurance coverage for an entire year. The selected families were required to return for several consecutive weeks to complete the sign-up process, which allowed us to build relationships and continue ministering to them. We are encouraged to see lasting fruit from these outreaches, as we continue to follow up on those who attended.

    Faithful Helpers

    We are very thankful for Dave and Rebecca Robbs, who came from our home church to fill in while the Morrows returned to the States for a brief visit. The Robbs sacrificially came with their three young children to help in many areas of the ministry and were a tremendous blessing through their involvement in Bible Clubs, English Sunday school classes, and various other needs. Though they have not been called into full-time ministry, they willingly did what they could, and their servant hearts made a significant impact on the work here. We were also grateful to celebrate Thanksgiving together with them, and it was a truly wonderful time of fellowship and gratitude.

    Looking Back, Moving Forward

    As we look back on the past year, our hearts are full of gratitude for all that the Lord has done. We thank God for His faithfulness, His provision, and the fruit we were able to see through the ministry. As we step into a new year, we look forward with anticipation to continuing to serve Him here in Tanzania, trusting Him to do even greater things for His glory.

    Your representatives to Tanzania,

    Jerry & Rachel Wyatt
