here are some pictures from a trip that I went on recently. Wes and Junes went down to Ping Dong to see the new English Village that they were/are setting up. I decided to tag along...
Junes and I had a blast keeping each other entertained on the way down...we played "whose camera is cooler." ;-)
This is the view that I had on the way down there. Ok, maybe we did have more scenery, but this seemed to be a majority of it.
The school was amazing. It wasn't the "biggest" school that I've seen, but it seemed much bigger with over 2,000 students attending it! I think that what I found even more fascinating was that the principle of this school knows each of those students by name! Yeah, talk about amazing...
The principle is a Christian and warmly invited us into her house overnight. It was so nice. SHE was wonderful! Very hospitable and Christ's light was totally flowing through her!!
I met a lot of new friends while I was there. I have some email addresses and I am really hoping that I can get (and stay) in touch with them.
It was so nice to get a "new change of faces" for two days.
Much as I LOVE (LOVE!!!) Elementary school children, it was a nice change to see some middle school children and almost get into conversation. =)
And, if nothing else, it was nice just to hang with Wes and Junes. They are so inspirational and their love for Taiwan is super contagious! I love you guys!! <3 <3
