women on the harvest

Women of the Harvest is a neat online resource for women serving cross-culturally.  I can't wait to have more time to pursue this very rich treasure trove of info for people just like me. 

They also have a quarterly online newsletter for POMs (parents of missionaries) called Harvest Legacy.  Skimming some of their back issues brought tears to my eyes.  I had a choice in whether or not I was going to make sacrifices to come serve overseas.  My mom and dad didn't get to choose whether or not they did--I made the choice for them.

new apartment (before) Well, as you know, I've moved. So, I thought I'd show you my new place this week--before, during, and now. "After" will have to wait because it is still a work in progress. :) Here is my new apartment before I moved in. I took these pictures during my second time in the apartment. The titles and captions below are really small, to see them better or to see larger versions of the pictures you can go here.

Tiffany and Becka's adventures--day 8 Let me take you back to the last week of July . . . (Needless to say, I have some catching up to do on my blog.) After being here for an action packed week and after a very emotion-filled Day 7, the girls and I decided to take a little break. On day 8, a Wednesday, we slept late, caught up on email and blogging, and just hung around the house. It was a welcomed rest. Mid-afternoon, after downing some wonderful fresh fruit slushes, we headed into Kaohsiung to go to an afternoon market that is popular with the teens and young adults of Kaohsiung. It is situated in between some of the major department stores downtown. Two of my students joined us and after some browsing and shopping, we deiced to go take some sticker pictures. This is a popular thing for young people to do when hanging out with friends. There are these stores filled with picture-taking machines that turn the photos into stickers. After you've posed 8 or 9 times, you get to choose which poses you like best and then decorate them. _____ Here are two of the pictures we took--keep in mind these things are very tiny stickers. Aren't they fun?! _____ After the pictures, we had some scrumptious roasted chicken sandwiches. _____ Then, moments later, Tiffany and Becka had their first of many "dong gua cha." Yes, it was on day 8 that my cousins fell in love with winter melon tea. _____ With teas in hand we ended the day by going to an English Bible study and sharing with new friends how Jesus had changed our lives. What a perfect ending to a relaxing day!
