2 Points

Since finishing 6-weeks of language school, our new language skills have been put to the test. Today we scored 2 points for the home team. We made an impromptu to visit to a friend's home. The wife, Adonech, works in the camp kitchen and the husband, Kedir, sometimes helps out with camp and the community outreach program. So while we were walking by their house today, they snagged us and invited us in for coffee. Now, neither of them speak English, Amharic is their second language, and our Amharic is still super rough, but we were able to communicate with minimal awkward silence for a solid 45 minutes! SCORE! 2 points for Team Adams! I know this may seem like a small feat, but as we continue to try to reach out to the community around us we have become increasingly aware of God's faithfulness and provision. We are excited to see our relationships with friends deepen and the church strengthened as we gain understanding of the language and culture.
