There were 2 schools taking place since I have been here; my school is the China Focused DTS and then there is the Compassion DTS. The Compassion team has been back on the base for a few weeks now and we got a chance to spend some time celebrating their graduation from school with a thing called “Love Feast”. It is a time for them to share what the Lord had done during their outreach and share personal testimonies. They did a wonderful job sharing their hearts, and I must be honest, I got teary eyed more than once in the course of the evening. Many of them have left to go home and it has been a sad goodbye, but we trust the Lord will keep doing great things through them, and a few of them will be coming back to the base in a few months to start staffing! J
Here are a few pictures of the evening where we all got to get dressed up and share a beautiful meal, fellowship and time of worship together:
Roomies!
A few of us, some staff, some Compassion DTS, and a lot of China Focused DTS!
This is Jessi! She is the leader of my school and is also my One or One person (I am being discipled by here). She is so wonderful and beautiful! (side note, it is hard to see but I was wearing the Toms from my Community back home to celebrate this wonderful evening!)
The room that we celebrated in! (Jericho) (side note: the guys head who is on the left bottom corner, Dean Sherman.. who spilled a glass of punch on me that night! It was a total accident but still it was a great memory!)
Chris and Marlyse! These 2 wonderful people will be tying the knot in Dec and I can’t wait to be there to celebrate with them! Marlyse is one of my roommates (as all of us girls live together) and she is such a joy and delight! Chris is just silly and wonderful! I enjoy taking pictures of them and asking them to make the faces they would make as if were their wedding day, this is what I got!
FOOD!!! So good! As you can tell it is mostly Asian food, but hey, when in Hong Kong….
Dean Sherman shared before we partook in a time of worship!
Some of the staff on base! (this was not a posed picture!)
Congrats Compassion DTS for shaking up the nations for the Cross! You guys are all wonderful!
