The Second Day at Gueishan.

shing chow:

hello from taiwan again! it is week 3 and we are in taoyuan city/guieshan running vbs at the local church. it is a lot smaller this week than compared to the first two weeks, but i'm having just as much fun. there is a different class dynamic, but no complaints here. it is also nice that we are pretty close by the city so we can walk over and grab a decent bite and also destress a little with some shopping in the little free time that we have.

definitely keep praying for us even though we are nearing the end of the trip. i think everyone is wearing down from everything. even though i am used to the early wake up calls and late evenings since i do teach on a regular basis, i'm still sleeping when i can/as much as i can cause there is some fatigue setting in. also, seeing the same people for 3 weeks straight gets annoying at times and i think i've had like 40 minutes total to myself since we've arrived so you can imagine what it feels like for an introvert like myself. we are going to need the patience and energy boost to get us to through the last 3 days!

look forward to seeing everyone and my bed in about a week. now off to listen to my joshua band cds we bought. it's all new
praise songs we sing, only translated to chinese. hope i can learn some more chinese through it! i stepped it up this week by trying to order my own food xP

norman ai:





today i was helping out in elean and josh's class all day. it was rather fun to be in one class for a whole day. i think i'll end up just staying there unless a need arises for me to go to another class. haha. well. starting to connect more with the kids. and we're in a church so im not as hesitant if the opportunities to share the gospel shows up. please pray for strength, health, and patience. thanks!

  1. I'm jealous for all the food you guys have access to. It's rather difficult, almost impossible, to replicate it.

    Enjoy the blessing while you can!
