As for the future of Mission Ethiopia, I will continue to raise funds to help this family and possibly other families in the future. As I was walking out of their neighborhood I passed many families in similar circumstances and could not help but be reminded of the story of the young boy and the starfish. The story goes that a young boy was walking along the shore where countless starfish had been washed up upon. Concerned with them dying, he began to throw them back into the sea, one by one. An older gentleman approached him and told him he was not making a difference. He quietly looked down at the starfish in his hand and as he tossed it into the sea he said I just made a difference to that one. We have begun to make a difference in the lives of seven people and will continue to do so. Please note Mission Ethiopia no longer has a P.O. box but donations can still be made via paypal by clicking on the donate button on the upper right hand corner of the blog. If you prefer to send in a donation please contact me for a mailing address. Please feel free to pass this message on to anyone you feel may be interested in reading it or helping. We can and will make a difference for this family!!!! Thank you very much!!!!
