Main Events for October

So, what did happen back in October?

Isaiah and Abigail were recommended for this Pre-AP English Program and after a brief conversation with several English teachers, they were accepted into the program which takes place every Saturday morning from 9-12noon.  They love what they are learning and doing in class.

Lovely had several dear friends leaving Taiwan.  One went back to South Africa and a family of four returned to North America.

Alan was in charge of the annual White Sunday which is a Samoan tradition of letting children lead the service.  He did a fantastic job and the entire service was filled with the joy of the family feel.

Isaiah and Abigail took their first set of exams.  They did fairly well considering that they are partly homeschooled.  Abigail had a perfect score for her English exam.

Lovely was invited to speak at a Chinese church for three consecutive Sundays. Only by God's continual presence and promise did she get through this challenging task.

Finally, we had some great time with different visitors who came through Taiwan.  We enjoyed seeing Phil and Fran who are now in England.  Angel came through for a very fast visit.

Overall, the month was a blast... except for one thing -- Lovely got a ticket for parking her scooter on the sidewalk.  The ticket came -- 900NT$ (30US$). For Lovely, it's a tremendously HUGE amount of money.  She is going to scan the ticket and post it for all to see in November!  The ticket came with a picture of her scooter... Now, there were about 20 scooters on the sidewalk and they all got a ticket. And, she would have left just in time but a woman fainted while she was leaving so she stayed to help get the woman into a wheelchair!  That was when the cops came to ticket everyone...

Seek Him First!
