Joh Eric Hope died this morning in a hospital in Taiwan after an airlight crash that happened about 9 o'clock. The pilot also died. We don't know much beyond that at this point.

I first met Joh Eric in Memphis, when we worked together for 5 weeks doing CharacterFirst! and Bible clubs in the inner-city. Two years ago when we needed more teachers for King Car I emailed him and asked if he wanted to come teach out here. He did come and served two years. This past year he has been the Hwalian team leader. He was going to be returning to the States in Aug. after English camps. The last time I saw him was in Shing Zhu, during the middle of ABC camps. He hugged me and said "Thanks for that email!"

Now he's with the Lord.
