WOW! Mitch and I are in total amazement! As of February 19th we owed $6200 for our outreach to Ethiopia, plus $615 for immunizations, plus $115 for travel insurance. As of today our new total owed out of everything is $1,630! Last Wednesday we had an offering night here at the base that gave the opportunity to give to those lacking money for outreach. And since then anonymous people here at the base and in Norway have been giving to us. Almost everyday we find another envelope in our mailbox.
I think the greatest thing out of it all is the lesson that it's all out of our strength. Although we worked hard before we came and have been contacting people while we've been here, God has shown us that even if things don't work out completely by our own ways, they do by his. He knows what we need, when we need it, and he'll give it!
Thank you to those of you who have given financially and prayerfully! We still owe the $1630 but we're still going to Ethiopia, and we know it will come.
