Day 35 – We Love Ethiopia

Today we wrap up our tremendous time in Ethiopia and prepare to take flight to Egypt. It will be a long day as we conclude with some shopping, visiting a handmade weaver shop, packing, dance and food at Yod Abbisynia, arrival at the airport at 10 pm, with our flight not departing until 4 am. A few of us started early today as the call to worship started at 3:45 am. Another great day to learn more about ourselves and all those we walk alongside.

Our crew has been amazing. They are traveling well and embracing every encounter. We have had one with a head cold and one with throw up in the middle of the night – but all marching right through it all.

We express our gratitude to Fikadu as he was an excellent guide for us on this journey. To Ordinary Hero and Fray we say thank you. To Abebech and family, we love you. To the people of Ethiopia, “Ameseginalehu” (አመሰግናለሁ).
