I know that we posted this on our Facebook Page but we wanted to let you know that the Sturgeon's will be back in Addis serving at Bingham Academy for the 2016-2017 school year. We are excited and blessed to be able to continue the work, ministry and relationships that have been made and cultivated over the past 7 short, short months. Jes will take over as the full-time grade 1 teacher instead of teaching a mixture of grade 1 and other specials classes. Jose's role will probably not change but will involve a few more and different tasks as (hopefully!!!) an experienced Maths Teacher will be added to the Bingham Staff.
We are still at a shortfall of around $8,000 dollars in order to be 100% funded for next year. We are asking that you consider an annual gift or monthly support to help us reach this goal. We are encouraged to see how God is working here at Bingham and in the neighborhood surrounding the school. We also hear of so many stories from home school parents and student's parents of the great work that is being done in Addis and all over Ethiopia.
That being said.....
We hope to be able to connect with you, our supporters, now and especially this summer. We have planned a whirlwind tour of the upper Midwest of the United States for this summer with the anticipation of meeting with you to share our stories and how God is working with our ministry. Our tour will begin in Delano, Minnesota on June 14 and will include appearances in places like Deephaven, Saint Louis Park, Minneapolis, Excelsior, Dassel and Eden Prairie. Specific times and locations will be released at a later date. Out-of-State venues are also being considered and planned so save up your money cause tickets will go quickly. Private meet-and-greets are also available and requests should be emailed to [email protected].
The kids are excited to see family and friends during this time. We look forward to hearing from you and talking to you.
Blessings,
The Sturgeons
