Iris and Candice took part in Chinese university exchange programs this semester.


Here I am with Martin, my first-ever Austrian student.

Well, it's hard to believe another semester has passed! This fall was full of challenges, including teaching an EFL course without a book for the first time. However, I felt that the Lord grew me throughout the process. I've also been encouraged by opportunities to share faith in Jesus in new and creative ways.

As a couple, Gana and I have grown in fellowship and the Word throughout the semester. We continue to be grateful for Word of Life International Fellowship, where numerous friendships with other believers have been formed. Gana is especially thankful for how some of her relationships with other ladies have deepened in recent months.
