My twin brother, Jared, is heading to Ethiopia as I type. He and his group will travel to the southeast border town of Dolo Ado, which borders Somalia. Each month, nearly 30,000 refugees are dying due to hunger and lack of medical attention in the region. I get chills just thinking of the images Jared will see, but I know his heart and know he'll make a difference in the few days he will be there.
Jared is a youth minister at First Baptist Church in The Woodlands, Texas. He has a heart that longs to serve others and his personality is infectious. I know he will be fine, but please join me in praying. Please pray for safety and for change, for I know he desperately desires to share the unconditional love of Christ to those who have no hope. If you are interested, you can view updates (as he has a chance to add them) on his website, www.jaredmccaleb.com.
Thanks for your prayers, I can't wait to hear his stories!
XOXO,
Erin
