We had a tough day yesterday. It started out great. Spent the morning cooking food for some of our poorest kids and when we got to the last delivery we found Dinka’s mom so sick we thought she might die if she didn’t get care immediately. We did not know what to do and we didn’t have an interpreter so we began to pray for God to help us and oh boy did he answer big time!
Our friend Getachew was looking for us and managed to track us down by asking if anyone saw where the two white women went. He is a church elder and knows everyone. He and I went to look for the doctor and left Sandy with Dinka’s mom.
We walked across town to the clinic. Not there. Then to his home. Not there. Then on the phone but there was no phone service – that happens a lot. Back across to Dinka’s on foot of course. Getachew left to find a taxi and I walked back across town to our house because we were supposed to meet Samson and Enat at 4 pm.
We eventually got Sirne into a budja (taxi) and to the clinic and Dr Feyissa eventually got there also. She is better today and they even sent her home this afternoon. She has no money to pay the medical bill so we are going to pay for her drugs and Dr Feyissa is not charging for the time in the clinic. Praise God!
Please continue to pray our GGI families. God can do mighty things when we pray!
