Yes, we just passed through Taiwan in a "sandwich trip." In the youtube video above you can see the familiar sites and sounds that made it feel quite a bit less than a strange, new world!
We got to spend time with some of our favorite people, implementing our priority of getting face time (not trash time as in the video!) with people in international ministry. How do we do this?
1) visit people where they are at,
2) invite people to come to us,
3) meet up with people where and when they gather, and
4) use technology and media to supplement (including skype, email, etc)
So (by the numbers!) after some 1, we're on our way to Thailand for some 3, while doing some 2 and 4 along the way.
In Chiang Mai, where we're headed right now, we'll meet with our working team, gathered from around the world, then attend a global conference for people from around the world who share our heart, our assignment, and our priorities ("global member care"). We'll get to top that off next week with some 1 in the heart of Asia before we finish the sandwich with some more face time in Taiwan "on our way" back to the US.
So enjoy that special feeling as you listen to the youtube video, or just close your eyes if that's "just not your world!"
In the one who hears us, wherever and whenever we call, with love, Steve and Laura
