Our Trip to Ethiopia, Day 8

 Friday, November 29, 2024

The day started off with a coffee ceremony at our amazing guest house. Then we went to Tomoca to buy coffee to bring home, did a bit of shopping, and had lunch at Sishu before heading back to Korah. We heard some heartbreaking stories of people who live in the trash dump and distributed a bit more rent money. Afterward, we played kickball for awhile before handing out coloring pages, crayons, and candy to 100 kids. They listened to the story of David and Goliath and then got so excited to answer questions from the story. If only our Sunday school kids in the U.S. got such a thrill out of Bible stories.

Back at the guest house, our hosts had prepared an amazing Thanksgiving feast for us off the back patio. It was delicious, and the view was gorgeous! Then we spent the evening with lots of friends. Linda and her girls headed back to the airport to fly home. The rest of us have one more day.












Shiloh LOVED this orange ball! 






























Lexie, Malia, and the boys made beaded bracelets tonight. Little Tesfaye made me one that said “Que❤️wn” and Lexie received one that said “God is Holly.” 😊
