Sunday

We have had a relaxed day, first attending a Mandarin/English service at a nearby protestant church. We met a Christian lady in a local shop who told us about it and she joined us. A good service with a message on Noah. FuMei was good, sat well, but seemed a little tired by the end. We later walked back with the sister to her shop, met her husband and prayed for them both. He has yet to believe.

At a local church.

We had a walk through a nearby market, had lunch and are now back resting. No plans tonight, but all feel the need to lay low. Kids are doing well--parents are a little spent. Thanks for your prayers. The weather today has been especially nice, in the 60s and the sun coming nicely through the haze. This town is alive with people--yesterday we visited a local shopping district that has a street just for pedestrians. It was literally wall to wall people. The Chinese have an expression for that "Ren Shan Ren Hai." Literally, "People Mountain, People Sea," or from mountain to sea there is nothing but people. That was the best experience of that idiom we have ever experienced. Nice for me to be a head above the crowd!

Thanks for your prayers.
