Ready, set, race!

I just signed up the whole family... well, most of the family... to run or walk in a fun race being held in Great Bend, Kansas to benefit Kechene Orphanage in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia. Specifically, it is a benefit to raise money to help girls who age out of the orphanage. They are too old to be adopted, and at age 18 are no longer eligible to live in the orphanage. The race is sponsored by Lasting Life Ministries and will be held on May 1, 2010. You can read more about it here:

The neatest part is that we will get to meet one of my blog friends who also has two adopted daughters from Ethiopia! I will post more about that when the day comes... can't wait to meet you and your family, Lori!
