Ethiopia

As I head off to Ethiopia, here is my tentative schedule of activities. I am not sure how much email/phone access I will have, so NO news is GOOD news- haha. Call Alan if you have questions about how I am doing. I will try to update my blog/email if possible. I would greatly appreciate your prayers as I head out on this adventure.

*Prayers for wisdom about future involvement in sustainable medical work in developing countries.
*Prayers for sharing my faith appropriately with team members and ethiopians.
*Prayers for Alan as he fixes up our house and goes through daily life.
*Prayers for safety and health.
*Prayers for the job situation- as I still have not heard about any that I have applied for.
*Prayers that I will grow closer to God through this experience and will become more like him.
