Mission Trip to Ethiopia

Wow! 2 weeks from today we will be on our way to Ethiopia for our mission trip.  During our stay we will be working in orphanages in Addis Ababa and Awassa and a youth rehabilitation facility in Addis. At least that's the plan. We've been told that "Flexibility!" needs to be our motto, so we need to be open to last minute changes in plans.

We are very excited to see some people that we met when we adopted our son 2 years ago.  We will be staying at the same hotel we did 2 years ago, which is next door to Caleb's care center he was at when we  picked him up.  I think there are going to be a lot of good memories. 

We fell in love with the Ethiopian people when we were there the first time and we are looking  forward to going and seeing these beautiful people again and hearing their stories.  We would appreciate your prayers as we serve the orphans and children of these countries. Keep following for updates and prayer requests before we leave and during our trip.
