Three families are currently in Ethiopia for an Embassy appointment on June 9. Three more families received their notification to travel for an Embassy appointment on June 23. BCS families have also been blessed with court dates in June for 13 families and their 16 children!  

It's never too early to think about heritage or culture camps for your Ethiopian children.  Linked here are just three examples: http://www.eakc.blogspot.com/    and  http://africancradle.org/camp09.html   and   http://www.heritageandculturecamp.org/ .  Explore your local Ethiopian or Adoption communities for a heritage  or culture camp near you.

BCS Ethiopia is hosting a volunteer in Ethiopia for the Summer.  You can follow Kate's journey at: http://katepadden.wordpress.com/

Five families are traveling to Ethiopia this week for Embassy appointments on June 23.  We pray for safe travels for these families and their children.  Four families have court dates for six children.  We also pray for the processing of these cases in the court.  Five families received referrals of six children of various ages this week!  The families waiting the longest are waiting since July 2008.  

One last thing for today, we've learned that the Ethiopia Court will be closed from August 7 until September 27.  Should you have questions or concerns, please let your worker know.
