This morning, we started the day after breakfast meeting with Glennda and Otey (two missionaries) to talk about our prayer walks over the past two days. We are going to be able to bring back some pictures and guides that will really help those who have been before and those who haven't been be able to pray for the people of Taichung. The missionaries told us how their are works that are now going on here, including our work at the college, that took years of teams coming over to prayer walk before they opened up.
After our meeting, we went to lunch and then joined the Table Tennis (ping pong) team for their practice at the college. It is amazing how patient and willing these students are to teach and spend time with us. We had a great time with them and continued to build relationships that we began yesterday.
After that, we went to join the Kendo team. Kendo is a Japanese martial art that probably could best be described by thinking of the teenage mutant ninja turtles. You wear body armor and brandish a sword made of bamboo. It is very violent and really fun. The team was really excited to have us and was ready to show us all the moves and we got to try out everything, including a match against some of them at the end. You'll have to check out some of the pictures once we return. Again, the Lord prepared the way for us, and we made some great connections. He has gone before us every step of the way. Please pray that He will go behind us and water the seeds we have planted.
After Kendo practice, we split again, with the GanEn group heading back to WanDe for a few minutes of rest before heading to the church and the other group heading to dinner before going to another class for the evening.
