Hong Kong

I only have a minute but wanted to quickly say that Andrey and I are going on a short little vacay tonight to Hong Kong. We'll be there till Sunday. We've been wanting to make a trip there for some time now. Our church community was started by a team from St. Stephen's Society 10 years ago and so there is quite a lot of connections with it still. There is a group of youth from Cebu in Hong Kong currently on a gap year ministry training. We're really looking forward to learning more about St. Stephen's, which grew from a ministry started in the walled city in the 1960s by Jacki Pullinger. There's a book about her called Chasing the Dragon. It's a pretty fantastic story if you have the opportunity to read it.
