We leave TODAY! We will spend the weekend in Rome and be in Ethiopia on Monday morning by 8:00 am (midnight here)! We hope to update the blog while we're away if you're interested. One last minute prayer request we have is for our donated supplies to make it in to country to be used where needed. We have heard from several families who have traveled recently that a few of their bags were searched and medical supplies were confiscated (even generic supplies like children's Tylenol, Motrin, etc). The guards said they needed a letter from the orphanage stating they needed those medical supplies in order to get supplies in country. This is a new to everyone and is not happening to everyone and even to those families it happened to they confiscated items from one bag they randomly searched and not the other bags. So we were advised to spread our donations out throughout our bags (which we have done) but we're asking for prayer that ALL of our donations get through customs and make it to the places we intend for them to be. We have FULL faith that God has gone before us and we appreciate your prayers for us while we're away!
Because of Him,
