Dee in Hosanna

When the teachers were competent in managing their own school she went to Hosanna, Ethiopia. Now, her focus is on training teachers to become trainers of other teachers. The lab school is the Kindergarten of the Hosanna Kale Heywet Church. Dee is also working with Hanna's Orphans to set up an orphanage which opened there in July of 2009.

Easter Blessings


HAPPY EASTER!
This beautiful Saturday Morning in Hosanna, Ethiopia is filled with Easter Praise.
I suppose I am the only one here thinking about Easter because the Ethiopian Easter is in late April. However, joy fills my heart because it is my favorite holiday.

The words to a song which was often sung in church when I was a child came to me this morning:

I SERVE A RISEN SAVIOR, HE'S IN THE WORLD TODAY.
I KNOW THAT HE IS LIVING NO MATTER WHAT MEN MAY SAY.
I SEE HIS HAND OF MERCY, I HEAR HIS VOICE OF CHEER,
AND JUST WHEN I MIGHT NEED HIM, HE'S ALWAYS NEAR.

HE LIVES, HE LIVES, CHRIST JESUS LIVES TODAY!
HE WALKS WITH ME AND TALKS WITH ME ALONG LIFE'S NARROW WAY.
HE LIVES, HE LIVES, SALVATION TO IMPART.
YOU ASK ME HOW I KNOW HE LIVES---HE LIVES WITHIN MY HEART!

There is a great celebration of the risen Savior in Hosanna!
It's going on in my heart.

I got a call from a friend in Yetebon. Nurse Asada and her sister are coming to Hosanna on the bus to visit. It will be a blessing to have another woman here who knows English well enough to have conversation.

May each of you have a wonderful and meaningful Easter!

God bless,
Dee
