Thanksgiving with the Kings




Erik & I had an absolutely fabulous Thanksgiving dinner with the King family. Jungrok, Jon and Jon's mom very kindly invited us for Thanksgiving. The food was AMAZING and the conversation was so insightful and encouraging. It's truly amazing how our Father leads His children together in Shanghai. What a blessing!

Christmas is coming to Shanghai






It's amazing how quickly time flies. Christmas is coming to Shanghai too!
I was in various parts of the city this weekend (Huai Hai Zhong Lu, Xin Tian Di, Tai Kang Lu), and you can see Christmas decorations everywhere!
It's very interesting to see how elaborate these decorations are, but Christmas in China is celebrated totally in a secular way. It's more like Santa Day-
I'll be part of a Christmas play on December 20th organized by my church.
I hope this will help them realize Christmas is more than just Santa and Christmas gifts!
