My Heart's Still in Ethiopia
It is with tearful joy that I report this news to my dear friends and family. For weeks my prayers have had a theme...provision and push. I have begged God to make the provisions necessary for us to do his work and to give us the push we needed to step out on faith. Since we returned home from Ethiopia with Ian my heart has been heavy for the many orphans we met while there. Today we got the okay to proceed with the adoption of our soon to be daughter. We were fortunate to meet her while in Ethiopia but had no idea that one day God may unite us as a family. I hope that you will pray for us as we embark on this wonderful journey once again and follow God as he grows the Clevinger clan by one remarkable 8 year old girl.
