Caleb's 9th birthday!

Answers to your questions from our previous blog:
1.  Funding:  We do not yet have a final figure for support needed in Ethiopia.  It seems as though we would have nearly all of it, if all of our supporters could continue on.  We are also unsure about ministry funds.

2.  We would love to be involved in ministry outside of Bingham Academy - street children, women at risk, orphan care/prevention, etc.   We will be exploring these more as the time is closer.  

3.  Conditional acceptance - meaning we have to provide 3 more documents, that we expect to clear.  

4.  We will need to learn Amharic.  Many people do speak English.  
PRAYER REQUESTS:
1.  Tomorrow Mark and I have a day in Madrid and hope to make our final decision about Ethiopia. 
2.  Charis has her driving (practical) exam on Monday at 12PM our time.  It is very difficult here to pass this - most fail 1-3 times before passing.  Please pray that she will pass on her first try (and Stephanie Zub who is taking it as well!).

Caleb's birthday looked like a wonderful day with family and friends. Cinnamon rolls are my favorite--so I would have enjoyed that part of the eats wholeheartedly. You are all such a loving family and I miss you. Thanks for sharing your photos, Caleb! You're very special and I love you!!!
