update 4

Dear Brothers and Sisters,

The past 5 days have been so busy that I didn't get to update. But, I am now currently in another school about 4 hours away from the school that I started in. The government kicked us out of the school because of issues with foreigners (and very likely because of our beliefs). In the beginning I didn't like it, but Father has opened up a new door for me to spread the Word. When we left the other school, I didn't realize how attached I had grown to the chinese volunteers and students in a mere 2 days.

And in 2 days I went from being a principal to an english teacher. Quite humbling, and a really different experience. I thought about it after being here a couple days, and I realized that this is the first time since my first year serving that I wasn't the principal of the school. It's quite relaxing knowing that I don't have to be supervising anything, but I can be a good support to our principal Carrie and vice principals here.

Word spreading has been really cool because more so then reaching out to the students, we are able to have really good conversations with the chinese volunteers here. This past Sunday we had a service, and we washed hands. As we washed their hands I really felt the spirit moving in the room. We only have 5 days left at this school, and I feel that its too short! Lift our team up to daddy that we would take ahold of every minute that we have at this school so that his word would be spread everywhere!

btw, it's been raining and cloudy, so its been hard to do activities, and the kids end up watching movies and playing games all day. And its an all week school so its been a little tough!

miss you guys!
