Quick link update

After re-reading my post from last night, I was eager to find out more information on the Mission Ethiopia and the empowerment party slated for Wednesday and Thursday's schedule of events. Visit www.missionethiopia.com and see a great video on the program that empowers women to make jewelry from the clay and paper beads that are all handmade. The second video mentions guest housing. Though, that is the same terminology that Leanne has used throughout making our arrangements, I am not sure if is anything like what we can expect of our arrangements.

Another quick note, we received our account update today, as we do every Monday, and the fundraising is so close to being complete. If you have been meaning to donate, there is still an opportunity at www.nabcspokane.org. Follow the link to on-line giving and you can designate a gift to the Ethiopian Mission team. All funds collected at this time will be used to further our service projects in country.

Finally, Bret and I went to The Queen of Sheba restaurant for Sunday lunch yesterday. It was my opportunity to introduce him to the food. He liked it and even took home leftovers!! We are all hoping to visit once more before we leave.

Thanks for checking in,
