Final Post - Conclusion

We had an amazing trip to Aleto Wondo, Yergalem and Dila.

There were 294 from 25 Church representing 19 different denominations in training.

Already we are planning to return in mid-September for a 6/7 Session trip to Asela and then down to the South Region again.   We are continuing to receive inquiries about having the training all through Ethiopia.

It is an honor to be part of what God is choosing to do in Ethiopia with these amazing people!   Thank you for being part of it with your prayers and support!

Preaching in Pastor Wogene's Church

It is always a joy to worship a Padtor Wogenees Church in Debre Zeit

I had some time to take some photos after worship at Pastor Wogene's Church today. 

Teaching in Aleta Wondo

Again, the trip between Aleta Wondo and Dila was beautiful.   Lush green forest through the hillside and a winding dirt road made for a very enjoyable trip.

Upon arriving to Wondo we discovered the hotel was not safe/good.   Wogene said he thought it would be better to stay back in Yergalem which was about 12 kilometers away.

I saw this young lady outside and asked her if I could take a photo of her.

When we arrived at the church it was all but empty.   I think there were 4 people there when it was "time" to start.   I am discovering that punctuality is not a strong suit of Ethiopians.  (Smile).  By 10 there were about 85-90 people there from 4 churches representing 3 different denominations.  At the end of the training there were 112 people from 8 churches representing 6 denominations.  

City Photos of Dila

Most of these photos were taken either from the car while in motion or from my hotel room using the zoom of the Nikon P900.
