We are now only three days away from our journey to Ethiopia to pick up our son Mesfin Jeremy. Between packing, re-packing, and then re-packing again, we have been quite busy of late. Not to mention, I think we have been to Target every day this week and probably will be there the day of to ensure every base is covered. That said, I'm sure we will be forgetting something. With all of this last minute planning, packing, and running around, I am comforted by the words of Padre Pio, when he said "Pray, hope and don't worry. Anxiety doesn't help at all. Our Merciful Lord will listen to your prayer".
With that, we wanted to take a minute to thank all of you for all your well wishes, prayers, and love. This has been the most amazing experience of both of our lives and thank you all for being a part of it.
We will do our best to update this site when we are in Africa, however we have been informed that it may be difficult. Thanks again and God Bless.
