A story of a family from Michigan, USA who traveled to Egypt for work.....served, laughed, loved....thrived thru the Egyptian Revolution....and then returned to Michigan after the job ended abruptly due to economic conditions.

The Future Egypt....

The Future Egypt is a CLEANER and FREER Egypt!

We are taking part in what we can! I had invited quite a crew from church to join an Egyptian crew cleaning the streets today. There were 100's of us, but we were in a group of about 30. Most of my church friends were busy or taking the sabbath, but I couldn't stand to not join! ha! One friend was able to join, what a blessing!

Here's a glimpse! After these load, I must blow more dirt out of my nose! LOL







The people are targeting touristy and foreigner highlight spots......they want SO much for the foreigners to return and rejoin! UNITED AS PEOPLE SHARING THIS PLANET!!

**food update** we have enough food for 130 bags tomorrow! PRAISE THE LORD!!!!

We have been united, as a specific prayer request, with a local Egyptian church...they are unable to keep up with the current additional needs of their community not too far from us - so we are targeting them with bags! Please consider a donation $10 will feed a family of 4 for a week!!

THANKS for continuing to pray! I hate to bug you to ask for money....but these people are LITERALLY STARVING IN FRONT OF MY FACE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I can't help but rope you in on it ;)

THANKS for sharing the joy!!

Now to spend the rest of the day playing uno, eating McDonald's and staying up late watching The Walton's ;)

LOVE TO YOU ALL!

Good for them! Everyone out cleaning is wonderful-brings the community together, it's healthier, looks better and those that come back will spread the word on how nice it looks!
