Weeks 1 through 3

Hello, week 2 was super busy with the ESL course. Week 2, one of our staff taught. She taught them possessive, nouns, pronouns. Jen and I taught the students words used in the kitchen. On Thursday they baked cookies from a recipe, and made invitations for the staff to come to a cookie party on Friday. On Friday we had a cookie party. It was fun, and yummy. Yesterday some of us helped out at a church who just moved into their new building. We cleaned, put chairs together. On Sunday we went to church and Pastor Trevor taught about how we are blessed. It was a good message.

week 3- Frank taught about weather, and  how to ask permission.  We have a Korean team here, so they have got to sit in on class. This week Jen and I taught them about body parts. It was fun, we played Hokey Pokey, Head,Shoulders, Knees and Toes and they drew a person 1 body part at a time.

Sorry it took so long for me to get another blog out. It seems every week I am challenged more and more, but it is good. I know I will grow a lot here. I still love it. I hope you all have a great week.

2nd week in Hong Kong


 I hope you all had a wonderful week. I love Hong Kong. The Lord has really challenged me this week.  Jen and I are staffing the English as a Second Language course, so we have been busy getting ready for that. We have two student here already and the other two arrive tomorrow.  Jen and I are teaching on shopping and market vocabulary, so we have been preparing for that. I am learning that God doesn't give you anything you can't handle and I need to actually believe that. I am also learning to keep going even when I want to quit. There was a couple of time this week where I wanted to quit, but the staff encouraged me to keep going, so I did. I am so happy that I did, because now I know I can do it.  If you think about it, pray for us and the students as we start the ESL tomorrow.We went to church today and the people there were really nice. I felt so at home there, and there was this cutest little girl. Well thats my life. I hope you have a great week.

Hong Kong


Hello I'm officially in Hong Kong. I just wanted to thank everyone who help me get here. I wouldn't be here if it wasn't for your support, so thank you. I love it here. I love being with the staff and leaders again. When I got here Monday night some of the staff came out to greet me, and on the dresser in my room they all had colored me welcome to Hong Kong Pictures. It made me feel so at home.

all the coloring pages :D
I have helped with lunch prep and however else I can. I had my first Bubble Tea, it was delicious. We had worship on Thursday and we sang the song "We Speak to Nations" and now I'm currently obsessed with it, and I have had it in my head for 3 days now.
