Day 1 : Travel to Addis Ababa

Updates:
We arrived in Frankfurt at 6.40am. Lots of people approached us about our mission t-shirts. Mainly because of its loud color and it's in Amharic. Luke 4:18 in Amharic. So the students took every opportunity to share their faith. Ethiopians, Yemenis, English folks, and Germans stopped us for small talks, and it became a Christ-sharing moment during the flights and at our layovers.. That really pumped our students knowing and experiencing the hand of God directing their every step, in country and out of the States.

This is going to be short, but please pray for our day of ministry at a Compassion Site with 270 children. God's love and strength be with us, and that we can be his hands and feet today.

By the way, we arrived safely in Addis Ababa at around 7pm last night followed by a warm welcome at the Ethiopian Guest House.

Talk to you guys soon.

Blessings, christabel

Hey Patrick,

We love you, and miss you so much. We're glad to hear you got there safely. We look forward to hearing stories of your Godly adventure. Solomon is preparing to leave for the Bahamas on Monday. How are we going to function without our ENFPs to mellow us out? We'll save you the Sunday Funnies. We are so very proud of you.

Michelle says ... ZAP!
Alex says ... I "FIXED" the bass.
Arrow and Elijah say ... You’re a Lobe.
Solomon says ... Who’s doing your chores while you are gone?

Be the leader and protector that God has called you to be.

We love you, Mom and Dad

P.S. He is like a Mounty, He always gets His man. He will ZAP you anyway He can ... ZAP!
