Vietnamese Bridemaids Ministy

We went to help babysit the children, while the Vietnamese brides sat in Mandarin classes. This was a way to get to know them better, form relationships, and then minister to their whole family...one of the ways of reaching the middle class.

some of us also helped clean up the center doing some hard labor by weatherproofing their shelves and also cleaning up water damage caused from a recent fire next door.

While we were cleaning up the facilities, the canadian girls went out prayer walking around the area. They met some other canadian in this county of Taiping- a pharmacist who just happened to have medicine that we were looking for! God is faithful in providing for us and also showing us new people to minister to.

We're back!

We arrived safely back in the States tonight.  Praise God!  The flight was a little shaky at first, and we ran into some complications at both ends of the flight, but we're all back and healthy, so it's all good ^^  We're in SoCal right now, debriefing for about three days and then heading our separate ways.  In these coming days, we'll be sharing our experiences with other short-term workers, as well as reflecting upon them and the things that God taught us in Taiwan.  Please pray that we'll be open to what God wants to teach us, and that we'll be sensitive to the Holy Spirit as we look back on the past few weeks.  Thanks!  God bless.
