Click the link below for a really good article that highlights the work of another couple serving with our company in Taiwan.

“In America, people have a good background of what a Christian is, but they don’t have that here,” Schexnayder said. “They are truly a baby. Oftentimes they add Jesus to their existing dichotomy of gods. It sometimes takes a while for those other gods to fall away.”

….we are clearly sending out long-term missionaries,” Meador said, countering the misperception that global evangelism efforts have been shut down by a lack of resources.

We have finally gotten around to posting photos that were taken while in attending a meeting in Seoul, South Korea. Hope you enjoy looking at them as much as we enjoyed taking them ;-)    Because of the sensitive nature of some of the people pics, I had to tag them “Friends and Family Only”.  If you can’t see them – but you want to – let me know and I’ll make you a friend at Flickr.

We’ve been so busy over the last couple of months and then catching up over the last couple of days that I failed to notice a milestone. Our blog celebrated it’s EIGHTH birthday on Monday.

A couple of years after our arrival in Taiwan we decided that it would be better to use a blog than monthly newsletters to keep friends and family updated on our life and ministry. We have done a so-so job of regularly posting what’s going on on this side of the water.

As always, I intend to do better in the future :-)

Stay tuned.

Finally, I passed the Chinese test! (I’m not certain that is a correct Chinese sentence :-)

I just received word from our language director that I passed the language requirement for my job! (The requirement is very low.)

Although we have lived here for some time now, this is the first language “test” either of us have taken.

I am so relieved :-)   NO MORE PRESSURE!

edit: I talked with my language teacher this morning and found out that I had indeed said it wrong :-(   The verb I used for passed cannot have an object. So, if I want to use that verb, I must say:  Zuìhòu, wǒ de hànyǔ kǎoshì jí gé le!  -OR-  use a different verb . . .  Zuìhòu, wǒ tōng guò le hànyǔ kǎoshì!
