I can't believe it! I have one week from tomorrow and I will be headed to Ethiopia. It seems a bit surreal. :) I am excited!
I think God must be going to do something amazing. First, I consider the area. Over 250 children are sponsored through World Vision from our church in the Abaya Community. Our family has 2 kids there. We are partnering with World Vision to help this community - water, education, medical, training, food. Then, I consider the team we are taking to Abaya... our pastor Brad (it's awesome he is actually coming on this trip!), Scott H. (leader in investment strategies), Tari B. (World Vision liaison), Allie (new heart for missions), and me (leader of Zone Africa at Lakeside). It's quite a group with many church leaders - specifically in missions. So I think - this isn't a coincidence. And I begin to wonder...what does God have planned for Abaya? It must be exciting!
I continue to pray Micah 6:8 as I prepare for my journey.
