Wow. Another day, another week. This week is different, though. Instead of the normal, "Yes, it is," or "No, it isn't" Coco and Momo dialogues, I'm teaching "Jingle Bells" and "We Wish You a Merry Christmas." I love sharing about "American" holidays. This time, the more I say about it, the more I remember about home and the holiday life.
There's a party planned for Saturday night- Lucas is heading it up, and we're already on our second round of invitations. We've got Christmas songs, a scavenger hunt, Christmas tree competition, Christmas story/traditions, and cookies to fill up the evening. It's been in the making for quite a while, and we're all pretty pumped about it. There's one thing about Jingmen: it's so small- and word travels very fast. That basically means that the whole town, if not island, has probably heard about it. What an awesome thing! We're all excited, hoping it will be a good time for people to come and hear the real meaning of Christmas- our Saviour's birth- plus enjoy some festivities with an American flare.
So..let the festivities begin, and let the Truth be declared among the people! "I am the Way, the Truth, and the Life.."

p.s.Please also remember to pray for the individuals here-that God will fill us with His peace- especially this next week..we're a bit homesick!
