Setting the stage
We made it to China!!! Thank you all for praying. We've been here in Harbin since Friday the 13th, we officially started with our ministry on Monday the 16th. It only took two airplanes, one commuter bus. a subway, a 19 hour train ride and two city buses for us to get here. It should have only been one city bus but the first bus we were on broke down. And the adventure began.

Our first day here a small group of us were asked to go to a college and speak English with some students. Ready for ministry we hopped on a city bus and traveled an hour to get to a school where a group of students were waiting for us. One of the group leaders walked up and said 'come on everyone is waiting for you". It was surreal as they passed around the microphone and we shared our names, got into groups and spent time talking about movies, took A Lot of pictures and started to build relationships with the students at this college. This set the stage for the ministry we will be doing here in China.

The excitement of the college group reminded me of the excitement of getting to know Jesus. He waits for us with open arms and is excited about spending time with us. He already knows and loves you. Have you? Will you accept HIS love and build a relationship with HIM? If you're unsure and would like to know more about building a relationship with Jesus let's start a conversation, send me a message.
Here I am! I stand at the door and knock. If anyone hears my voice and opens the door, I will come in and eat with him, and he with me" (Rev 3:20).
