Dinner Saturday was Chinese BBQ on the sidewalk at a small place around the corner from SFCV. Light rain showers while eating, not a problem. Just means that we get to enjoy a beautiful rainbow!
Father's Day church service in Beijing at the Beijing International Fellowship. It was pretty cool. People from all around the world worshipping together - the only caveat was that you had to show your passport on the way in to prove you weren't Chinese. To satisfy some of the government regulations and allow this gathering, no Chinese nationals are allowed to be in attendance.
Following worship we went for a VERY warm stroll through the Forbidden City. We only went to about 8 of the approximately 888 rooms. Truly amazing when you realize the history that took place within those walls.'
So great to be able to spend the day with my Baba (Chinese for Dad)!
He was able to enjoy a special treat of cards from grandkids at home as well as a brief Skype session between Pop and Benjamin as well as Mom.
The team from Indianapolis arrives at midnight. We're slated to begin VBS tomorrow at 9a. Please pray as the final details come together. Also for the kids with chicken pox. I'm anticipating that our plans will be a bit flexible as about half of the kids who are supposed to participate have "the pox" and are confined to quarters.
