Chapter 10: I know, I'm way over due...


It’s been really busy these past couple weeks, thus preventing me from making myself sit down and blog an entry… sorry! BUT last week was really awesome and intense. I went through Physical Therapy training in Kunming. I wish I had taken my camera to take pictures so I could show you all the sweet children I saw and what we did. But the training was really good and I feel more equipped for working with the kids in Wen Shan.
I’m staying one more week in Kunming, then I’ll head back to Wen Shan – but I’ll only be there for about two weeks, because in about two-and-a-half weeks from now “Beauty and The Beast” opens at KIA!!! I forget if I mentioned earlier that Lexi was cast as Belle and Wyatt as Lafou for the play, and I’m so excited to see it. I keep hearing it’s going to come out really well.
My project for the kids in Wen Shan is pretty much finished! I have the posters and cards made and laminated, and they look amazing, basically exactly how I pictured them. Now all I have to do is make songs and get pictures of animals, and then make it a functional learning tool for the kids. But I can’t do that until I actually use it with the kids… we’ll see how that goes!
There’s not much else to report, really, except that Gd is definitely stretching me here in China. He’s challenged me to look at the world, myself, and my faith in different ways. One really cool thing he’ taught me is I can have peace whenever I want to – it’s just a matter of obeying him with a willing heart, and he fills it with his peace and assurance. I’m excited to go back to Wen Shan and to see what it’s like to live with the different perspectives he’s given me.
Hope you all are doing well!
