This is the first time since I've arrived that I've been able to get blog spot up. I'm very excited!
I really don't even know where to begin as far as updates go.
I have loved every minute walking the streets and talking to the people. Their so friendly, so open, so loving.
I'm trying desperately to pick up the language quickly so I can speak to them on my own.
And it's the absolute BEST being here with Gabby and Samuel! Who would have thought 2 young girls from Youngstown would end up in Harar, Ethiopia as missionaries? Jesus did! And I'm so thankful.
The team here is great! I have to keep reminding myself that I'm here. I'm so honored to live with such amazing men and women of God... They are my heroes!
I feel like the theme of this entire trip has been LOVE. There is absolutely nothing in the world like loving on people and pouring Jesus out on them.
Walking the street with my best friends, hugging beautiful street children, greeting and kissing old women's cheeks in the markets, being invited into homes, house churches, Sunday morning church... WOW!
I still have 2 1/2 more weeks here and I'm going to enjoy every moment!
This is the best life!
