Our team teaches 3 classes every other Friday morning at various elementary schools. This past Friday we taught at a school near Jiji. It was very small. One of the classes I taught only had 5 students!! That was a new experience for me as most of the schools I teach at are quite large. The kids were very excited that we were there and during break many of them played basketball with us. They were so sweet and cute!!! I ate lunch with the second graders. It was really fun trying to communicate with them. My Chinese knowledge is extremely minimal, so they helped me by teaching me a few new Chinese words.
Next week will be another busy week as we head to Taipei (actually somewhere about 2 hours from there)where we’ll be doing another teachers conference, teaching in a few schools, and celebrating Thanksgiving together. Please pray for safe travels for all of us and for our health as a few of us have been sick lately. Please also pray that we would continue to keep our eyes on the goal the Lord has set before us and that we would seek Him first in all that we do.
Thanks for all your encouragement and prayers!! That’s what helps keep us going.
Nantou,
Amanda
