The second two weeks in Ethiopia was spent in the capital, Addis Ababa. My husband and I have been teaching a course on marriage and family issues at a theological college for the past twelve years. It has been a truly life changing experience as our students have experienced more challenges and hardships than one can imagine.

I’m back from an amazing trip to Ethiopia and want to share with you about my experience there. My husband and I headed a team to care for and learn from the people of Sintaro, the village our church “adopted.” We are in the third year of a seven-year project to come alongside the village as they move toward development. We have provided a well and built a school, which now has 250 children attending.
