Welcome

Welcome to the Advocates' tour to Ethiopia website.

Here you can keep up to date with the activities of our group of advocates as we travel to Ethiopia from the 20th to the 31st of May 2009 to see the work of Compassion.Advocates are sponsors with a heart for our ministry who volunteer some of their time on an ongoing basis to promote Compassion in their churches and within their spheres of influence.

The team will spend time meeting staff and children in projects, visiting the homes of Compassion sponsored children, seeing how the country office operates and meeting formerly sponsored children. We will try to update the site each day whilst we are in Ethiopia and we hope you find it interesting. Enjoy!

Why worry? God's in control

Well, after all the worry about weight, one lady was 2 kg under, so took the 2.5 kg bag Carrie-Anne had (repacking it on the concourse so she could say she packed it) and the check-in clerk nodded the 24 kg bag through when told it was for charity, even though Carrie-Anne offered to pay the excess!

Apparently everyone has met up ok, friendships are already being formed, and they are meeting at the boarding gate in 25 minutes at 13:00 BST.

God bless

    Wishing you all travelling mercy for a safe landing in Addis Ababa. Praying also that all will be well with the check in to the hotel. God bless.
