第八天- 07/29/09 (Wednesday)
Today a few tears were shed as we were departing the church
at Zhudong forthe final time. There were many friends made and we will miss each other.
Some of the Taiwan Mission Team members are rumored to be claiming that
they weren't very important to the team. Don't believe them!
Everyone
played an important part and we all felt it each time a team member was
sick and unable to be with us.
God deliberately brought together a very
broad team in terms of our ages, backgrounds, experiences and talents to
make this happen, and this included many helpers from the local churches.
The last day was a struggle as it has been, but there were also several
high points.
The first attached picture is where the EMei church helpers
cleverly chose a few of the junior high school children to join in the dancing
with the college team.
Then there were the skits as the children acted out the story of Esther.
The second attached picture is where Haman is begging Esther for his life.
We had a final lunch together with the various groups. The last photo includesthe EMei church team, the Beipu church team, our HOC6 group, and the teachers
from the Beipu Junior High School. The principal from the high school is
at the upper left.
Give thanks to God that he has put it into the heart of these school leaders
to make this happen. We also showed part of a Jesus movie including a clear
presentation of the gospel message of salvation through Jesus. May the
Lord continue working things according to His plan. We have requested prayerfor the Zhudong and EMei church in the past, but the Beipu church is the
one where the children live and we pray that they too will be able to continue
to follow up with these Junior High children after we leave. Please remember
all three of these churches as we have opportunities to pray.
We will continue gathering pictures and posting stories at the website:
