Well, we finally arrived in Ethiopia about 1pm Sunday afternoon our time. Our flight landing was the most eventful flight thus far - side winds making sure we got our money's worth. We are thankful to finally be at the guest house we are staying at all week - miscommunication with our taxi but after a couple hours found a ride - truly thankful to be getting settled in. Tomorrow (Monday) we will head out in the early morning for the twins original orphanage and to have our birth parent interview. Would love prayer covering for the 6 hour round-trip, but even more for our time with the birth mom. Really hard to know how to prepare for this one - pray that we might be an evidence of God's grace to her. Mostly just prayed we'd be sensitive to God's Spirit in how we interact. OK, Julie is already crashed for the evening, I'm heading back to our room now to see if sleep will not evade when the clock strikes 3:30 am. :)
Thanks Doug A. for bringing a great sermon on the grace of Adoption this morning at TDC. Sure missed worshiping with our church family.
Grace and Peace to our friends and family.
God is good. J & J
