We just received a scarce email from the girls (email is just beginning to catch on over there:)......and RIGHT NOW at this moment the girls should be on a plane beginning to fly back home!! Which also means they have a very long night (or is it day??) ahead of them. They should be in Frankfurt sometime in the middle of the night (for us) and then arrive in Chicago around 12:30 p.m. tomorrow. So pray......for lots of energy, for safety, for no major disasters in places like ethiopia or eritrea or germany like volcanoes to hinder them (i know, this sounds a little selfish - we could just pray for no disasters anywhere in the world), and for the jetlag and culture shock to be easy on them.
Also, please keep praying for Ayehu. Who knows what this visit has done to her emotionally? We hope it has given her a lot of peace, but it may have also opened some painful emotional wounds. I can't imagine how difficult it would be to give up your children, even if you know you are doing the best and right thing. Our hope is that she would receive the comfort of Jesus every day and know the peace that he can give.
This is posted by Connie again. Just in case you were wondering.
