Sorry for the lack of updates, pictures, and more... The internet at my uncle's house isn't operating the way it's supposed to.. as in at all.... As for the meeting, we talked about what the church has been doing and they would love for me to be a part of their services. Though i feel like it's more like a "just be there at church and be involved" sort of thing which was not at all what I expected...(I could just do that at home) But needless to say, my weekends will be a bit busy... As for the weekdays... i have nothing, which is killing me right now..(i have a prayer about it, which I'll list below) Meanwhile I've found out that this apartment complex has a lot of stuff downstairs...including a mini-mart, pool, games, and a small gym; which will accommodate me for the time being since I'm basicaly bored and freezing in my room... so if I come back and I'm buff... don't be surprised (/sarcasm). Finally going to church by myself tomorrow and not have someone trailing me to see if I get lost... I definitely miss the independence where I can do and go wherever.. As for pictures.. I really don't know how much I'll post to be honest... If you're in my shoes, you'll know that I've been here before, and nothing really comes out at me like "oooooo ahhhh gotta take a picture of that" ... plus it makes me look like a tourist which I'm definitely not... but I'll still try to get some that may be entertaining.... Chinese New Year especially since it's coming up in less than 2 weeks...
Back to the prayer request... One of my mom's friends called me the other day after she found out that I'm going the be totally free during the weekdays... She said that there is a sort of an after-school program at the church (different one) and asked if I would like to teach ESL there for some of the kids (english as a second language).. Of course I said yes, and that I don't mind the age groups since I've worked, taught, played, etc. with kids of all ages.. She said she'll ask the person in charge if it was okay and will get back to me as soon as she can... So pray that this goes through... quickly if possible... Y'all know me and I'm a "cup half empty" sort of guy and isn't extremely confident that this will happen... But this is what I always felt like I was called to do here during the trip (not just to attend church).. Anyways.. prayers help.. Thanks!
Till Next Time
