Thank you SO MUCH for your continued thoughts for us! We are continually seeing the Father at work in wonderfully awesome ways! We had our first day of classes today with a record eighty-four students, each of whom is far more than precious in HIS sight! Each of the teachers mentioned that things went very well, and we are looking forward to an even better day tomorrow. The food here is great -- even the fish with its very small bones. A couple of people on our team are somewhat allergic to eggs, and a couple of days ago we were served a dish of tomatoes and scrambled eggs. One of the allergic people ate it, thinking it was chicken instead of eggs! She is fine. We had four more Americans join our group last night; they are interns who have been in China for about six weeks now, with the prospect of working here in the future. So we are now a team of sixteen people dedicated to the task to which the Father has assigned us for this short period of time. Thanks very much for the part that you are playing in our efforts to share the Father's love with these so very needy kids. David Ostman
