one body, many members - thank you

What an amazing journey we have had, and it has only been about six months since our family decided to walk along side Ekklesia CarePoint!  As I think about Romans 12: 4 - 6a, I think of you.  "For just as each of us has one body with many members, and these members do not all have the same function, so in Christ we, though many, form one body, and each member belongs to all the others.  We have different gifts, according to the grace given to each of us."  Each of you is acting as one body, using the gifts you have been given to support this great work in Ethiopia. 

I have been completely overwhelmed with support and encouragement not only from our family and friends, but your family and friends as well!  I continue to be amazed by your generous gifts - gifts of love, support, encouragement, financial gifts, and prayer.

Because of you...

• Each and every one of the children at Ekklesia will receive a care package. Our amazing 2015 Mission Team will spend time with these children as well as hand deliver your packages and letters.  Each child will have their letter read to them as they receive the gifts you sent.
• Many of you have been and continue to pray for us, for our team and our planning, and for the children and staff in Ethiopia.
• You read our newsletters and support this blog.
• Time, money, and materials have been donated.
• Beautiful words of encouragement, love, and support continue to pour in!

From the bottom of my heart, thank you for being on this journey with us.
