Back in Discovery Bay

The Gateway Camp ended last night and today everyone was leaving on their different outreaches. There are sports camps, bike tours, and kids camps. It was a great time working with all the cute kids. (I had a bunch of kids from England in my small group- I love their accent!) The Gateway Camp was a huge success. There were about 50 nations represented and close to 2000 people attended. So amazing. I loved talking to everyone and getting to make new friends. Since the Gateway Camp is finished we are able to focus on one kids ministry instead of two.

Now we have moved for the last time back to Discovery Bay to a different apartment, it is really cute, small but cute. We have a great view of the bay too. AND we have internet access!!! Yeah!! We have several new people added to our team here. We are all meeting together in an hour to have dinner together and then go out and invite more people to the day camp. *Quick prayer request. We need prayer that God will bring in more kids to the camp and that we will be able to finalize the day outreaches for next Saturday.

Here is a map of Hong Kong to show where we are. Discovery Bay is diagonally up from Peng Chau island in the little inlet that looks like a shark with his mouth open. We often go to Hong Kong Island which is basically the hub of the city but we also were in Kowloon which is where we lived this past week for the Gateway Camp.

Oh my brain in not functioning at full capacity, I have been working on this blog for probably about 45+ min. Remind me to tell everyone about the really cool people I met here and red bean fleecy (don't try it, it's really gross.)

I am proud to be your Dad!!! You are missing the King County Fair this weekend and my Game night at the church but I suppose you are doing more eternal things of real value. Miss you. Come back soon Megan!

I am so glad you were able to be there and take part in the Gateway Camp plus more yet to come! You will have much to talk about, over tea of course!, when you return. Love you dearly...Mom
