Earth Day Celebration Event

worldchild,

Just had to drop you a line and let you know what a joy it was to share about world child last Friday at our campus wide Earth Day Celebration.  A lot of folks came by the “green gifting” table, got a green world child bracelet and laminated card.  The bracelets and cards were the most asked about items on the table. I had many opportunities to share with others about the people in other countries that have benefited from world child through the generosity of others.

It was indeed a blessing to be used of the Lord to share in this capacity in what is predominantly a secular environment.

Thank you and Bless you,

Sue

The Heart of the Ethiopia Trek

Reaching out to Ethiopia

 

We put together this slide show to SHOW you what we did in Ethiopia…and why it is so desperately important that we do what we can to reach out to Africa…and the children who live there!  Please pray that we will be able to do MUCH more to help the city of Gondar, the orhans there, and the nation of Ethiopia.

Another report from our team in Ethiopia

Tonight, we had our first church service in Gondar. The church was packed with over a 1,000 people! We had to bring in extra seats to accommodate everyone!

The evening kicked off with the team’s stomp dance. Talk about high-energy! Sarah taught on “going through tests” which is something the people of Ethiopia face every day. Violence, lack, and AIDS continue to take an unimaginable toll on the nation. At the core of her message she shared important keys on trusting God in the midst of the trial. Sarah had those having a difficult time trusting God raise their hands; then those who weren’t having a hard time trusting Him raised their hand—she had these pray for the ones having a hard time. It was a dynamic time of ministry—and a GREAT first service. Thanks for your prayers.

 

These are the faces—the people—behind the Ethiopia Trek

In Ethiopia, Sarah and her team are reaching out with the hands of Jesus, touching, talking, loving individuals who are in desperate need of a little hope! They are in need of food, water, and medical help, yes. But they are most in need of hope.

These are the faces—the people—behind the Ethiopia Trek. To remind us to pray, for the team and the powerful outreach going on right now in Ethiopia, AND for the people God is reaching out to while they are there.

• Please feel free to print one and put it on your fridge, mirror, bulletin board…to REMIND you to PRAY.
• Set them as your DESKTOP WALLPAPER for the same reason. (Simply click on the picture you want to open. Then rightclick on the picture you want and choose “Set as Background”.)
• SHARE THEM with your friends via email or your blog.

As Sarah and her team are on the ground in Ethiopia being the hands and feet of Jesus, let’s hold them up in prayer back here at home!
