Hong Kong




Our time in Hong Kong has been amazing! But not for the expected reasons. Not because of high rises, harbors or historical landmarks. On the contrary actually. You see those things are quite material, but our joy lies in the unseen.
Most of what is done by the organization that we work with is unseen by many, including ourselves. We see such a miniscule portion of what Dad is doing on this earth through the goods that are given to people in countries all over the world by this amazing organization that we have been placed with.
I chose that word carefully, “placed.” We very much chose to join this work. But yet, when we came overseas, we had no idea that this great work was happening here and that we were actually being set up to join it shortly. I am being reminded of that so much now as people here ask us how we came to be a part of this movement.
It is exciting to think that our ‘Managing Director’ knew long before we did exactly where He wanted to place us. He prepared work for us. Work that suits us both well. Work that we love and are passionate about. A purpose to serve the poor, the orphaned, the widow, the abandoned, the forgotten of this world while doing EXACTLY what we LOVE!
It is beautiful really. We are being reminded that we are right in the middle of His plan for our lives and that is precisely where we want to be. We can’t wait to get back and share more about this work with you all!
Here are some photos of our time in the city, which was just an extra bonus to our time here.
