Mini-update
Dear Friends and Family,
Since Dec. 20th I have been OOB (as our mission leaders say: Out of Bed). No rest and much travel: There will be an update as soon as I get settled down, again.
Sue Paul and LivI came on Dec. 27th. I had a team meeting in Uganda; Team Leaders returned to Ethiopia with me; then a large team from CBF arrived a couple of days after team leaders left and we traveled to all of the sites where CBF missionaries are doing work in Ethiopia---that was a 6 day trip.
I took Emebet home from the hospital on my way back to Hosanna. I also brought a remarkable lady named Hanna to Hosanna with me for the next morning's trip through the justice system here to have children in the prison (with moms) released. She had secured a commitment from renters of good housing for the children before she left Hosanna. I am taking Ato Mulu and Bizunesh to Addis tomorrow. Merrie Harding, a PT went with me, when the CBF team was here, to fit his wheelchair and determined that he needed a bicycle chair, instead. Hopefully, we can pick it up and be back to Hosanna in 2 days. Bizunesh is going to register for more seminary classes. The college has yet to find teachers for me to train but I am staying very busy as I walk with Him. Each day brings new opportunities. We had a house full of women for Bible Study today.
I am humbled to be in His service here in Ethiopia,
Dee
