We are famliy!!

Last Sunday (4/11), we met at the Edwards' home. There were 9 adults and 5 kids all together. We are all sisters and brothers in God regardless of our age (70 years apart from the oldest to the youngest) and culture(we are from 3 different cultures). Thanks to Alicia (I'm sure with the help of her lovely family), we had a great meal (one of the best meals I ever had at foreign friends' home in Taiwan).

Thanks to God's love, so that we can support and encourage each other. Thanks to God's love, we can be well looked after not only when we were foreigner in the foreign country England (by Bill and Sheila) but also in our home country Taiwan (by Chad and Alicia). Believe me, it's a blessing to be a part of God's family.

上星期天晚上在宣教士佳備及麗暇的盛情邀約下，我們一家人、搥搥、蝦蝦、佳芬與遠從英國來的好友Bill跟Sheila到他們家共進晚餐。麗暇利用一個下午的時間變出了一桌滿滿的豐盛佳餚，我們9個大人及5個小孩都吃得津津有味，欲罷不能。因為Bill、Sheila及佳備跟麗暇這兩對夫妻同樣有著把生命的菁華奉獻給上帝到國外開拓教會傳福音的背景，所以有聊不完的話題，雖然有些話題我這個"門外漢"插不上嘴，但光是靜靜在一旁聆聽便有種很難形容的感動。

雖然這兩對夫妻年紀不同，文化背景也不同，但因為上帝的愛，他們同樣地愛著我們、照顧著我們、鼓勵著我們。謝謝主賜下這些關心我們的朋友，也願主的力量及恩典隨時與他們同在。
