Dear Friends and Family,
This is Heather, Pastor Mike's wife, he and Christabel called this morning as they were getting ready to travel to Debre Zeit and wanted me to pass on an update to you all. They will not have internet access readily accessable so I will be passing on the updates when I get them. So the updates will probably be a little shorter as they are trying to relay as much info as they can in a 5 minute phone call...but here is what I got this morning...
They attended an evangelical church this morning that had 3,000+ in attendence, many more than they were expecting. They said that the worship was wonderful and a great way to start the morning! They were accopmanied by 8 Compassion Graduates who served as their translators. These students were a part of a Compassion Leadership team, which is something they can be nominated for that after graduate the program. They said it was very helpful to have them around and what a treat to see what the students can do when they complete the program.
They were getting ready to travel to Debre Zeit, 45 mins South East of Addis Ababa, where they will be for the next 6 days. The will visit another Compassion project and HIV center.
Blessings,
Heather

Hey Patrick,
(We posted this a few days ago.... just reposting to make sure you see it!)
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 left for the Bahamas this morning. How are we going to function without our ENFPs to mellow us out?
We'll save you the Sunday Funnies.
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 are so very proud of you!!!
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!
Dear Patrick,
Financial and prayer support have continued to come in on your behalf, Praise God!!!God has got you covered,as always.
I looked at some youtube footage of Debre Zeit last night. It reminds me of the rural area in the Dominican Republic.
I miss your beautiful voice in the background of my days.God has blessed you with a powerful musical gift. What a wonderful tool to build relational bridges.
In humility, embrace the privilege of singing praises to Our Lord and Savior. God has designed you to be a mighty warrior for The Kingdom. Sing when The Spirit says sing!
Depend on Jesus for guidance & strength and take care of others who are in need of help. Just love people like crazy!
Remember that you are being missed like crazy because I am crazy about you!!!!
Love-
Your Crazy Mom
