Ok, short update here...I'm back in the States after a fairly short trip of only 27 hours from Taipei to Claremore. Andrea and Young are here with me and seem to be enjoying themselves.

Camp was great. God really put his blessing on it and many seeds were planted and several students saved. There were no huge disasters (which was a huge relief to me, since this was my first time be totally responsible for a camp!) and everybody had a very good time. Large group time was awesome. On the first day (God is powerful) Daniel told the creation story, focusing on how God divided things. I'll have to post pictures of that later. It was very funny. Then day two (God is just) I told the story of the fall. Day three (God is personal) three of our teachers gave testimonies...one in English and two in Chinese. Then on day four (God is love) Joy presented the Gospel.

We also did a few activities that were really fun. We did a treasure hunt where they kids were given a list of things to do, with each task being worth a certain number of points. The team with the most points won. We also did water games, which are always fun. I taught them how to dance the Virginia Reel, which was actually a huge success, even though I was expecting it to totally crash and burn.

The trip back from Taiwan was really fast...I'd never made it in under 32 hours before. But this time we did it in 27 hours. One of our layovers was only 30 minutes! And on top of that Andrea was throwing up in between flights, which made things rather difficult...I mean, you don't want to hurry somebody is is feeling horrible, but you REALLY don't want to miss your flight...so what do you do? But now that we're here we've been having a really good time.

Yesterday I visited the gym and taught for a little bit and today I worked all morning...it's fun being back there. Tomorrow I'll be going back to work at Donald and Corky's...I'm looking forward to seeing those guys again. Tonight I'm going to go visit a karate class started by one of Mr. Murry's students...I've actually been wanting to visit for a long time, so now I'll finally get a chance.

I'm going to sign out now. 再見!
