2nd Team Arrives Safely
The 2nd team arrived safely today. We just finished dinner with them and everyone is doing well.
From the Testimonials
My name is Maddie and I am 14 years old. I came to America 2 1/2 years ago. I used to live in Ethiopia in Africa. My father died of HIV and my mother has HIV and is dying. I have two sisters and one brother. My mom wanted us to have a better life and sent us to orphanage. I had prayed to God when I lived in our village in Ethiopia to know who He was and He answered my prayers. When my new family was ready to adopt us we were sent to the capital city of Addis Ababa. The nannies at the care center shared the Gospel of Jesus Christ with me and I became a Christian. It was the greatest gift I ever had. I then prayed for a strong Christian family. God has blessed me with parents who love Him and brothers and sisters who love God as well. I want Jesus to be the center of my life always. I am grateful to be with all my family and I pray that other kids like me - parents with HIV - will also find a Christian home. I desire to be a nurse so one day I can help my people by sharing the Gospel of Jesus Christ before they die.
I’ll bet their arrival was a breath of fresh air for those already there! Tell Victoria she will especially be in my prayers as she serves at Hope Foster Home. What a privilege, to hold those little children for Him!
Thanks Gaye. We’re doing well. The 2nd team has joined us here at our camp and are jumping in.
