Ethiopia. Over 84 million people. 84 languages. More than 80% earn under £1 a day. Literacy is below 50%.

 

Please help me visit Addis Ababa. This isn't a holiday. It's about learning. I'll be visiting projects including a prison ministry; an AIDS /HIV Support group, and and a literacy project. I'll learn first hand about the challenges of living in and taking the Bible to Ethiopia, and encourage those working there.

 

The trip's self funded, but I'll working with representatives of the Scottish Bible Society and the Ethiopian Bible Society. Please would you make a donation towards the cost?

 

£2 buys anti-bacterial hand gel

£10 buys 25 miles of my journey

£25 buys my visa

£38.50 pays for 7 hours of my stay - enough to visit a project in the city

£60 vaccinates me against Yellow Fever

£160 pays for 24 hours of the trip

 

 

People say Africa changes you. I hope to come home equipped to help - and to tell others how they can help too, by writing and talking about my experiences in churches and beyond, so that investment in me now reaps rewards for the people of Ethiopia in the future.
