We have recently changed our focus here in Ethiopia from planting an English speaking church to working among the poor, the child and the orphan. This is who God really used to first draw us to Ethiopia, so its a very exciting time. We've got a lot of possibilities, so we are trying to discern exactly what way God would desire us to partner with Him while continuing to work on language and cultural learning. We are dreaming about ways to minister with the poor and to see them become more self-sustainable along the way in partnership with local churches. Please watch the video below which tells more about our process and also what God has put in our hearts to see...as well as some intro videos from our kids.
