China Summer 2016!



China Trip 2016

I am about to take the trip of a lifetime.  This summer I am joining a travel delegation of 20-25 college students, professors and high school leaders on a trip to Eastern China.  We will travel to cities between Shanghai and Beijing.

 The Board at Unity Christian High School is sponsoring me to travel to China in order for me to visit the educational institutions of both public and private schools.

Currently, Unity has 4 students enrolled for 2016-2017 from China.  I am excited to learn more about their country's diverse and rich culture.

The goal of the trip is to recruit potential students for Unity Christian.

It is summer in China and it is summer here as well.  I respect your interest or your lack of interest in my travels.  if you would like to follow me on this trip, I will be posting blog updates here.

I am both excited and mildly nervous about a 14 hour flight, over the North Pole by the way.  Please keep me in your prayers that I will arrive safely and timely at the right terminals in my connecting flights.

I am looking forward to meeting new people and experiencing authentic Chinese food.  So far I know 2 phrases in China.  I am working on a few more....

1. How are you?                Ne Hao Ma.
2. I don't know.                 Wu bo dong.
3. That was delicious?
4. I love China
5. I am fine.
