Sunday was our last day at Shalu. The team was in charge of leading worship and Elder Yen was invited to preach. In the middle of the sermon we suddenly saw a familiar face walking in. It was Carol! one of our students from Shalu High School. We were so excited to see her. After the service we found out that she actually went out of her way to bring us "Fried Sweet Potato Balls."
It was delicious and we finished all of it within minutes. We were so touched that she came, it was definitely a pleasant surprise! We were able to talk through lunch and she even went to the bus stop with Sydney and I. During this past week, we were able to meet many awesome students and now we are moving our relationships from teacher/student to friends!
Thank you Carol for your love and friendship!
We are going to miss all the students that we had the opportunity to interact during the last two weeks. After a week at Shalu, we have officially finished our 2010 summer mission trip. Within the next two weeks, all the members will slowly return to the U.S. It was a great experience for all of us and we will treasure the memories forever!
Glory to God for his protection and guidance!
