Nate's first day at church!!! :-)
We went to church today! We were brought to tears just listening to the people sing worship songs in Chinese to HIM. The church was packed with mostly Chinese families. PTL I was so thankful to HIM for the families there worshipping our SAVIOR. I hope more people will hear the Good News!!!
HE has HIS hand on us!!!
Less than 24 hours after we left Kunming, there was an earthquake. Our friends in Kunming said that they felt the quake about 4:30 pm on Sat. Also Zhaotong where Nate is from had a lot of damage. HE has something special for Nate to do. Nate has survived his special need ... where here in China most boys do not live. And now leaving Zhaotong just in time to miss the earthquake. Please lift up Nate's foster parents and all the other orphans in Zhaotong city in Yunnan.

Nate's foster mother
This is Nate's foster mother. She has done such a great job with Nate. I know he misses her and I know she misses him. Thanks to HIM for his foster mother and I pray that she will come to know HIM and that we will see her again one day.
Nate says Hey everyone!!!
Today we went to the Ethnic Village. Nate is doing so much better. Today Nate let Albert hold him. Thanks for lifting Nate up ... HE answers! PTL
See HIM working!!!
Yesterday we went to see the Tannous' and we tour the clinic where John works. It was great to see how HE is working here in Kunming. Lives are being changed forever.PTL Thank you John and Karen for giving your lives to serve others. Also we went to the Wicker Basket and ate lunch with John and Karen. We also met another couple from Georgia at the Wicker Basket. It's a small small world. HE is so awesome! Continue to lift us up and the Tannous' too. The ONE we serve is awesome and deserves all praise!!!!

We got to Kunming we arrived at the hotel around 6:10 and at 6;15 we got Nate. It has been very hard ... we was very attached to his foster mother (it breaks my heart) and he did want anything to do with us. Last night after everyone left he gathered up all his belongings and went to the door and cried for mama. That just about killed me. Today we went to the Civil Affairs office and he saw his foster mother and the orphanage director again so everything was bad again. We're now in the room and he is adjusting ... it's just going to take time. He is talking but we don't know nothing is he saying other than mama and baba. He just says mama or baba and points at whatever he wants. He is also pottie trained and he is very smart and independent. He is beginning to smile and laugh. I think he was the emperor of the orphanage. It was fun to watch him use his chop sticks at lunch . Nate will have to teach me and Albert how to use them. LOL a two year teaches his parents how to use chop sticks. Please continue to remember to lift us up.
