The feeding program

Today we went to the Yezelalem Minch offices and met our sponcer child, Redit, and our grandparents sponsor child,  Yabsira, we gave them some gifts and got to ask them a few questions about school and sports.
 Then we went to the feeding program,  run by Burtukan and Nesibu, and helped give the food out to the kids. They had injera, the Ethiopian bread, with a sauce and bananas.
The area is accualy a preschool with kids up to eight years old and we got to visit the rooms and the playground and play with the kids as well as give them plates of food. A lot of the kids wanted to shake our hands, give us a hug, or play thumb war with us. 
 All the kids were very nice and we even met another Mekdes there. 
We also got to see an Ethiopian coffee ceremony and watch the woman make the coffee and it smelled really good.
