we're finally here! after a 14ish hour plane ride and another 1.5 hour plane ride. it was soo humid already when we got here but good thing jersey was a bit humid before we left so we were somewhat prepared. we met most of the other team members last night; they met us at the airport and welcomed us with big arms! everyone is so different but funny and the guys on the team are amazingly chivalrous (carrying our luggage up and down stairs with no complaint!) we're all going to get breakfast this morning together but i woke up a bit too early...jetlag i guess. jamie and i are going to go explore our campus a bit more so time well spent. pictures will be up soon enough! :)

Hong Kong International
We all survived the 16 hour flight! Yay for arriving in Hong Kong! Between movies, sleeping, games, etc, we made it. Praise God that we're all safe and no one puked or anything. It is currently about 7:50pm here and our connect flight to Taipei is at 9:00.
In the meantime, we're probably going to find stuff to eat with our not HK money. Too bad we can't go out to sightsee in the city or anything. Continue to pray for us. The Taipei flight is a lot shorter and hopefully it will go just as smoothly.

Leaving!
Pray for us! We're leaving today!
Metting up at church @ 10:00 AM with everyone else. Somehow, I believe God will work through us and show us how AWESOME He is through this trip.

We're leaving tomorrow! Our flight departs 2:50 from JFK, and we'll be flying to Taipei via Hong Kong. We're pretty much ready to go! Thanks to everyone for praying with us for the past months. We've truly been blessed by your prayers!
During our last team prayer meeting, Auntie Cynthia shared a vision she recently had. In her vision, she saw grains of sand. A hand picked up the sand, and the loose grains fell right through the fingers. Then the sand mixed with water. The sand clumped temporarily but fell apart. But then the sand was then mixed with blood and formed into concrete. We've been praying for team unity, especially since it has become even more pressing as the trip approaches. Praise God for Auntie Cynthia's vision. We're reminded that we are reunited with God through Christ, and it's also the blood of Christ that will unite our team so that we can be used for His glory.
"We are all bought back by Christ's Blood. His precious blood washed us clean and bring us into God's kingdom and we became HIS children. So in my vision, God reminded us that we are binded by Christ's blood which is HIS LOVE. We, as one team, should love each other without any condition, just like our LORD."
God is SO GOOD!
