I received the info from Clay K. while you were in Ethiopia and stayed up one night reading about your journey to this point. God is SO good!<BR/><BR/>You may not remember meeting us at Moody's 20th reunion (we weren't there for the 25th.) My husband Steve and I went to high school with Moody. Anyway, know that folks in Virginia were praying for you while you were in Ethiopia! Thank you for sharing God's glory in such a beautiful way here on your blog.
