On Friday, we obtained our final paperwork and the kids' passports from the Bethany office and had a nice lunch. The kids are getting much more comfortable with us. Unfortunately, Zenash has some significant issues with a few teeth that are causing her a lot of pain. We're maxing her out on pain meds and will address the problem as soon as we return.
Today is our last day in country. It's bitter sweet. We are looking forward to coming home. But we will miss Ethiopia and the people we've met. We will be visiting a feeding program today run by a Bethany affiliate. We will also be spending time with Birtukan, the woman who runs the guest house we stayed at last trip. She and her daughter will be helping Bec with Zenash's hair.
We leave tonight at 10:50 Ethiopian time. We would greatly appreciate prayers for our trip home. Bec is not feeling well and we have some long layovers. If all goes well, we arrive in GR at 8:00 Sunday night. Looking forward to seeing everyone!
Praying for you and the kids as you travel home. Also, praying specifically for Becky to feel better. Isa. 30:18 "The Lord longs to be gracious to you; He rises to show you compassion. For the Lord is a God of justice. Blessed are all who wait for Him!"
