As many may know, I had the opportunity to take a trip to Ethiopia last summer, and I absolutely fell in love with it, just as I thought I would. A piece of my heart was left there, and I knew I wanted to go back as soon as I left.

I am so excited to have the opportunity to go back to Ethiopia and serve with an organization called Ordinary Hero this summer. During June 10th-19th, Ordinary Hero will be traveling to Addis Ababa, Ethiopia with a team of 10-20 people, our trip will focus on coming alongside the children and needy within both urban and rural impoverished communities of Ethiopia to bring them much needed hope and support. Ordinary Hero partners with the change makers within impoverished communities to see lasting change, so I will be serving through a number of locally-ran ministries. Among the things we will do include:

• Hear the testimonies of both the leaders and children supported

• Visit homes throughout the villages served

• Pray with the poor

• Spend quality time building relationships with the children and people of Ethiopia

• Facilitate feeding programs

• Distribute donations as needed

As you can imagine, a trip like this requires financial support from a number of people. If you can support me financially, I would be very

grateful for any amount. I would also very much appreciate your support through prayer as we embark on this journey across the world. Prayer is the fuel that will allow us to be successful as we follow God's leading day to day.
