Ethiopia

Mom is headed back to AFRICA!!!!!! 3 years ago she went with a group from Illinois to Zimbabwe. This year she is going to Ethiopia with Buckner's. So far there are 5 from FBC Spur going and will be involved with an orphanage and VBS. Mom has been through a lot in the last 2 years. She will need many prayers long before she leaves and also while there. I am not sure the dates but I will keep you posted. This picture is of the first time mom was in Africa and it is partly the reason I ended up going. I saw this picture and was drawn to the little boy on the far left. Something about him got to me. Last year I went to Africa so needly to say, I am a little jealous. I wish God was calling me too, but, at the present time, nothing. Romans 12:1-2 were the verses mom used in her testimony of how God called her. --- Therefore, I urge you, brothers, in view of God's mercy, to offer your bodies as living sacrifices, holy and pleasing to God—this is your spiritual act of worship. Do not conform any longer to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind. Then you will be able to test and approve what God's will is—his good, pleasing and perfect will.
