Still on China...
I've been meaning to ask if anyone is keen to make a week-long trip down to Nujiang, Yunnan at the end of the year.
I've a friend who's spending a year there providing counselling services to kids and foster parents, teaching English and life skills at the local schools and teaching mental health at a health science school. I met up with her early this year before she left and she mentioned something about the need for Christians to get out of their Christian ghettos and comfort zones.
It might be a good opportunity, not just to see first-hand what God is doing in China, but to participate by providing our time, services and companionship to the kids and my friend over there.
We could also stop by in Beijing to say hello to orangeclouds on the way back. It would be nice if we could make this a group thing. :)
