* Fingerprinting went perfectly. We arrived 45 minutes early. They got us right in, so we left 15 minutes before our scheduled time! One more item checked off the list.
*Our dossier should be in Ethiopia any time. It needs to be translated and then a court date is issued. Pray for speedy processing.
*A quick update on the t-shirts for shoes project - the button I had at the top left of the blog - the original goal was to sell 400 shirts. In the end 782 T-shirts were sold. That generated $23,469.76. It provided t-shirts and shoes for 782 orphans in Ethiopia! This project was completed Feb. 1st. Cool, Huh?!?
