A summary of week 3





This past week was Harrison and Jerry final week here in China. On Monday they both headed to the airport, and made it back safely to America. Praise God! Before they left, we all had some very productive reading sessions. All the students here are still so eager to practice their English. We have many students who are interested in the bible. They ask so many good questions about the lessons that are being discussed. Their are some that are even asking how they can know more about God. God seems to really be working here to open their hearts up to his word. We celebrated T's 22nd birthday on June 1st. The people here bought her the most beautiful mango cake and sang happy birthday in Chinese. On Saturday we had our second party. This one's theme was game night. About 25 of our students were present. We sang Lord Reign in Me and Hosanna You're My King. The students all sang along and did a great job. We also split up into groups and had discussions so that everyone could get to know each other. Finally, we played Link and a game that is somewhat similar to rock, paper, scissors (except this one involved running). This Sunday we were given the opportunity to travel into Xiamen to attend the church there. There were about 50 people there. We have had such an amazing trip so far and pray that God continues to bless us. Thank you for all your thoughts and prayers while we are here. God Bless
