Dragon Boat Festival!!!




On Thursday, we celebrated Dragon Boat Day. This is the day that ushers in the summer. The whole island had the day off, except for Morrison. So while Keith worked and Milly, Wade, Hunter, and Levi went to school Page took the opportunity to go to a near-by mountain and hike in a bamboo forest with some of her friends. Pictured above, is a neat tree house (made of bamboo) and Page among her friends.

Levi Baptized!!!


Levi was baptized today at our church, House of Blessing!! Actually, he was baptized at Morrison's pool because our church meets in a local Chinese middle school. Keith was honored to be able to baptize him. Six others, 4 children and 2 adults, were also baptized. It was a great day!!

Levi's Soccer Team


Levi's soccer team recently competed in the Taichung's Mayor Cup Soccer Tourney. Levi's team played great and reached the championship game. They played a team they lost to earlier in the tournament by 2 goals. As the final horn sounded the game was tied 0 to 0. They had a shoot out and Levi helped his team score but the other team ended up with one more goal. So, they finished second. Levi had a good time -- although he was a bit disappointed in losing in the championship. (He gets his competitive nature from his mom!!)


Hunter's team also competed but they lost in an earlier round. He had a good time too!!

Basketball Fun in Taipei



Milly and Wade recently competed in middle school tournament games in Taipei. They both had a great time. Milly's team played hard and improved through out the tournament. Wade's team, coached by Keith, came in 2nd place out of 10 teams. Wade hit a game winning 1/2 court shot to win the first game!! It was an exciting day.

A View from Taipei 101


Above is a picture taken from the top of Taipei 101 -- the second tallest building in the world. Pretty neat view. Reminds us of all the people that need to hear the "good news" in Taipei and Taiwan. Thanks for your prayers for the nation of Taiwan!!
