Building Improvements and Maintenance Update – March 2010

Tim Bibo, Jr. — Tue, 09 Mar 2010 02:25:06 +0000

You may have noticed the recently built fence and newly installed walkway on the church’s grass lot. Both of these improvements were made possible with funding from a Healthy Neighborhoods grant. Our friends at the Southeast Community Development Corporation were instrumental in helping Abbott to secure the grants, and we are grateful for their assistance, especially that of Chris Ryer and Kari Snyder.

During the storms, snow piled up on the gymnasium roof and blocked off two of its drains. As the snow melted, it found its way down the gym wall, covered the floor with water, and then continued down the walls in Rooms 7 and 8. It damaged the wall, the floor, several pairs of curtains, took out part of the new ceiling , ruined the piano and a wooden bookcase filled with Bibles and hymnals. Fortunately, some men from the church were able to clear the drains and prevent the water from causing more damage.

Reflections on 2010 Missions Trip to Ethiopia

Tim Bibo, Jr. — Tue, 09 Mar 2010 02:21:16 +0000

Every winter, for more than a decade, Abbott members and friends have traveled to Addis Ababa, Ethiopia as part of a medical missions team. While in Ethiopia, the team serves people whose lives have been affected by HIV and AIDS. The team works to provide medical care, pastoral care, handyman work, and a variety of other services to meet the needs of the beneficiaries.

Robert Taylor, a deacon at Abbott Memorial, traveled to Ethiopia for the first time this February. He has offered some reflections on his trip:

I am so grateful that I was given the opportunity to go on the most recent trip to Ethiopia. I knew that it was going to be a challenging time for me, not only being away from my family for two weeks, but knowing the conditions under which the people we were going to serve were living. After we adjusted to the new environment and time zone, we really started getting to know the beneficiaries and providing them the help they needed. I was immediately blown away by their amazing outlook on life, regardless of the conditions around them, and it opened my eyes to the many gifts I have been blessed with in my own life.

. I am inspired by the people I met that have put their trust and faith in God and hope that I can continue to be a witness to His unfailing love.
