The weekend before Thanksgiving, Brian and I were privileged to attend an orthodontic conference in Dallas. We've gone to this meeting for the past three years, and our favorite part about it, hands down, is getting to spend time with the amazing Alexander family.
To boil down a long, incredible, providentially-ordained story... one year ago, Moody and Emily adopted a little boy named Eyasu from a remote village in Ethiopia called Dube Bute.
They have recently teamed up with A Glimmer of Hope to help transform this village of 4,200 HUMAN BEINGS who are currently living in extreme poverty that often results in death. They're building 18 clean water wells, a vet clinic, a medical clinic and several classrooms, among other important essentials.
On Thursday evening, we were blessed to attend an amazing fundraiser in their home.
The video below was shown there. Be inspired as you watch! It is overwhelming to realize how the Lord will work if His people are willing.

Can you imagine what these people thought as they saw Eyasu riding into their village? Many in the community loved him and certainly thought they were saying goodbye forever when he was adopted. Then a year later and out of the blue, they see him enter the village, bringing with him an army of help. Tears fill my eyes as I picture it! God is good.

I don't have time to watch it now but I can't wait to view the video. I forgot to ask you about your time with the Alexanders when we talked on the phone. Next time!
