Fun Time in the Sunshine

5/29/2015

Here is another much needed update! I’ve really been enjoying spending time with the women in the house! its encouraging to see God have such a huge impact on each and every one of these lives! Today I was playing jump rope and Belaynesh is soo good! Ha…the others could use some work :) I will introduce you all to them later with a separate DE post and a brief story about them.
Last week I took their girls, and Emabet & Mita out for go-carting…and lets just say me and Mekdes had more fun driving them around then they did!
I beat her every time btw(:
Then after that we had some delicious ice cream, which was even better than orange leaf :P and then I took Emabet & Bereket to get some dinner, and have a serious talk about what she wants for their future. But of course Mita had to show me her moves as we waited for our food.
She Jammin huh? Ha, After they settled down we talked and Emabet is sooo discouraged! Ahh it broke my heart. She is just sooo used to existing, She has no hope, no dreams, nothing to look forward to, and she is completely fine/used to it. So pleeeeease pray for restoration!! And fulfillment of the Holy Spirit! I asked her to pray over the food even, and she said she couldn’t do it :’(  But I am having faith in God that He will make her whole again! Will you join me in prayer?

If you havent seen on facebook or IG (NapturalGirl) I have made it safe & sound to the beautiful land with beautiful people and…..No wifi!
Ha, in Addis its better but due to the elections here in Bishoftu there is absolutely no 3G. Hopefully after they announce the winning party it will be better!
Soooooo….Of course on my first day I had to see with my Baby!
