Service equals love.

Just a quick post about the gift of service and how is has touched and inspired our family recently. Our church had a service project last night for our family where women of our church gathered for a yummy dinner, information was presented on third world countries and how in need they are of service, and then we spent the rest of the evening tying 3 beautiful crib quilts for us to take to Sele Enat when we travel to pick up Grace. I am so touched by the outpouring of love and interest in this adoption and so appreciate the monetary donations that were given, as well as the baby items, toys and other items that have been so graciously donated. We will be proud to take them to Ethiopia with us and deliver them in the name our church family. Again I have been shown how much acts of service (both big and small) can touch a person and make them feel loved!
Thank-you, thank-you, thank-you...

We are still awaiting a court date!
