More good news (personally) and prayers requested

We are now #75! Yeah. That is one step closer to our dream.

On a side note: Please pray for the people living in Ethiopia. They have had a very dry season and are in a severe drought. If traditional pray isn't your thing try a rain dance anything. These people are desperate and hungry and rain would help crops grow, keep livestock from dying and keep the power on in some places as it is hydroelectric.

While your at it say a pray or 2 or 3 for the people of Haiti as well. They are facing tremendously high food prices and some civil unrest. People are starving and are resorting to anything to feed their family.

If you have the means here are some ways you can contribute to either Ethiopia or Haiti:

http://www.childrenshomeadopt.org/Ethiopia.html

I personally have donated to these places as a majority, as in upwards of 95%, of the money we donate goes directly to the people and not administrative costs.
