Our Summer Travelers

We have a whole bunch of folks away from Berkeley this summer... some people even across international waters! Some of them have blogs where you can read their stunning (mostly about food) adventures. Please pray for our brothers who are away... and give them a holler over Skype if you have a chance. Jenny and I (and Abigail) had a chance to talk w/ John C. a couple days ago. It was really wonderful seeing both him and Jasper as they sat in an internet cafe over in Shanghai.

  • John C. is in Shanghai, participating in the PESI program. Jasper is there too (did you know Jasper's a part of A2F3?)
  • Daniel S. was in Beijing for PESI, and then helped out at an orphanage. He should be back in the States soon, but will be leaving for GLDI very soon.
  • Steve C. is in Taiwan. He was there w/ Taiwan team 1, is staying there for Chinese school at Tsinghua University, and then participating as a teacher in the English Camp starting in mid-July. He and a bunch of people from Koinonia, acts2fellowship, Kairos, and Gracepoint Berkeley are teaching English to incoming Tsinghua and Chiao-Tung University freshmen for 2 weeks. (did ya'll know that Steve's in H.4 w/ Daniel and Hannah?)
  • Jay K. is in Korea now, but Jay's heading to China to study abroad for a whole year. By the time he gets back, he'll be fluent in Chinese and a senior! Please keep him in your prayers, and let him know once in a while over Skype that we miss him over here!
  • Khanh is heading tot he Netherlands soon! She'll be there until the end of summer... just in time for the Euro 2008!
Alright, that's all for now. Keep these brothers and sisters in your prayer, and on your Skype account!
