Buckeye Tee in Ethiopia

Tilahun is the young boy we began sponsoring over a year ago at Trees of Glory school in Ethiopia.  We have been able to send care packages to him but before today have not seen any updated photos of him.  These JUST came through my email tonight…and I couldn't wait to share them.  This is from the care package we sent to him in November.  I LOVE that we got photos of him holding pictures of us…and of course the boys insisted our boy in Ethiopia had a Buckeye tee of his own.

Love this boy we don't know and LOVE that we can be a part of his life in a way.

Oh how I love his smile.  He is sitting with a translator and a volunteer from the team that went on the trip.






What a difference a year makes…look at that sparkle and joy in his eye.  Praying he is loving Jesus!  Know that he is learning all about Him in school!


They have added 50 more children to the Trees of Glory care point.  It is part of the larger Christian organization called Children Hope Chest.  If you have any interest you can contact Karen Winstrom directly.
