Days 4&5

Here is the update from our last few days.  We've gone all over Ethiopia and seen some amazing things.  The evidence that God is working is so clear that it gives me chills.  Check them out.

This young man is a street kid in Addis Abbaba in Ethiopia.  He's been in jail multiple times, addicted to drugs, been in multiple fights and lived without hope for a long time.  He told us his story about all that he's gone throught and how today he's an excellent student and beginning to turn his life around because of his relationship with Christ.  When he committed his life to Christ he gave himself this tattoo.

Love the symbolism

If there is a definition of "worship" it was here; with these young men.

Here area few pics from Covenant Children's Homes in Shone.  We met/played with 25 kids who are sponsored.  They killed us in a very competitive game of "duck, duck, goose."  Here we witnessed first hand what a different sponsorship makes.  These children were receiving an education, food, clothing, shoes, and most importantly medical attention.

This little guy was outside the Covenant Children's Home and shows the contrast between those who are sponsored and those that are not.

Loving the pictures. The people are just beautiful. We are praying for you and for the amazing changes God will make in your life. You have opened a huge door, elephant sized and I can only imagine the wonders that will come flooding in.
