The Hospitality We Received 短宣隨筆-熱情的招待









The second morning, we had a performance from their band. They played pretty
well for a junior high school band.


Most of the time our job was to entertain
and inform then in ways that would have the ACLU howling in the US, but
this Buddhist nation is much less anti-Christian than America. For me, getting
to wander around a school with a camera is a real treat that may be once
in a life time.

Next, they gave us a Kung Fu performance.


I wasn't expecting any entertainment, but that is what we got from all the
children. They started with this well done lion dance.

Some people look at the panorama below and see a very large Buddha with
a huge temple next to it being renovated.


Pastor Fan, however, saw a Christian
retreat for prayer. Yes, it is the two buildings to the right.


Things are finishing up so quickly and this is our last dinner that we will
enjoy at the Zhudong Church. Pastor Fan is on the left and pastor Zhou is
on the right. Mrs. Zhou and some helpers have worked incredibly hard these
days to feed our group. There is much to learn about hospitality from this

family.

The Last Supper


I took more than 1,000 pictures, of which a few actually turned out nicely,
so there will be several more updates related to this part of our trip.
