Well, it's day 2 for me, but the team has only just arrived. I haven't heard from Ronny or the team yet - but that is understandable. From their perspective, they arrived at 7 PM after being on a 16 hour flight and had to check into a hotel and catch a 6:30 AM flight from Addis Ababa to Mekele. Now, in my time, they got their right before noon and they are probably at the airport right now (it's 10 PM here). So, who knows what their own body clocks are doing, and hopefully they got some rest! Our prayers have been for safe flights, luggage to arrive with them and complete, and for the preparation of their hearts.
Tonight, RC prayed for Ronny and asked for his safety, for good health, and for him to be all he needed to be for this trip. It was so sweet.
I attempted to have home group this evening, although the 4 inches of rain we got today (combined with the 2 we got yesterday!)...made for some low water crossing flooding and many people stayed in. We are supposed to get more through the night and tomorrow, but so far it is quiet and clear. The rain has been wonderful, cleansing, and refreshing. I do hope we get more, just no flooding! We only had the Stavinoha's and the Emery's here - it was a little nutty because of no baby sitter - and Kyle was a little tornado tonight. We managed to have a sweet time, though. Now the children are asleep and I'm ready for a bath and some reading. My heart is peaceful, and while I do miss my hubby, I am still filled with joy for him and am praying for him as this day (a new dawn for him right now) will be the real "first day" of his time in Ethiopia.
