Dear Friends and Family, Give thanks to the Lord, call on His name; make known among the nations what He has done. I Chron. 16:8. Thank you so much for your prayers for our Fall 2013 Ethiopia team. Excited to share how God provided for our teaching, travel and even trials! We are Gods workmanship, created in Christ Jesus to do good works which God prepared in advance Purpose Driven Seminar #5 completed in Addis for us to do. Ephesians 2:10
Ababa, pastors and leaders are released to teach the same scriptural principles to their own groups.

Our Hawassa translators, Ensalle and Britukan have a heart for the women, asked for my full set of teaching notes and powerpoint. Britukan said, after the Fall 2012 conference, shared the message I gave, Being a Woman God can Use with a group of a couple of hundred women. A month later attended another conference, my same message was shared there by the speaker. This time the audience was over 10,000 women! We anticipate this same impact with our messages going forth. Sing to him, sing praise to him; tell of all his wonderful acts. Glory in his holy name; let the hearts of those who seek the Lord rejoice. Look to the Lord and his strength; seek his face always. I Chron.16: 9-11 Megans first aid kit training was to see if teaching is Megan shares gifts of love one of her spiritual gifts. (It definitely is!) We still have with the women in Addis & an outstanding bill for the first aid kits. (The kits cost Hawassa, Ethiopia. $2,500. If you are able to donate any additional funding, please earmark your gift Team Giesbrecht Ethiopia 2013.)

Our translators, Britukan and Ensalle were an encouragement and a delight to share in ministry.

Pastors and leaders in Hawassa share in small group discussion about how to apply Gods word.

To prepare Gods people for works of service, so that the body of Christ may be built up. Eph. 4:12 It was thrilling for me to see my sweet daughter-in-law serve the Lord in this way. Not only was it an honor for me to have her join me, but it was wonderful to see her love the women!

Remember the wonders He has done, his miracles and the judgments he pronounced. I Chron. 16:12 We praise God for BIG answers to prayer: Our luggage was recovered in Addis, we remained physically and spiritually healthy throughout the trip, through the Biblical teaching women were released from fear. African leaders were transformed to train and equip their churches to maturity. We give God the glory for His wonders! Much love and Megan shared how we must trust Christ when we need healing from Him, he will help us take prayer,
care of the soul and body.
