traveling time
I love traveling to Ethiopia with teams.
Over the last five years, I have had the opportunity to travel to Ethiopia with various teams to visit the CarePoint/School we work with. Every time I go, I am amazed at the people who decide to travel with us. Each person brings unique gifts and skills… but all bring an amazing heart of love and a desire to serve and share the love of Christ.
The October 2017 team is no different. Our small team of five brings skills in leadership and teaching, compassion and kindness, and a desire to be a part of God’s story in Ethiopia.
With a small team, we will have the opportunity to do things a little differently. Instead of working with the whole group of students, a group of two will be in a single classroom to spend time with the students and staff - teaching, learning, singing, coloring, and enjoying time together. I am excited to see how this focused time in individual classrooms works!
During our lesson times with the students, we will be reviewing the creation story and sharing the parable of the Prodigal Son. Our time with the staff will be focused on God's love.
We cannot wait to share updates and pictures... as the internet permits. Thanks for your continued prayers as we journey across the ocean!
(Note... I will be in Ethiopia next week and the team will join me on the 14th.)
