Major Update

I have been quite busy lately. Will have pics soon. My old computer finally gave out. Had to get another one. Thank you JR! Here is a rundown of some things that have happened in the last few months.

1. Went to the US to see mom and friends. While I was there, I had the honor of performing Robbie's and Robyn's marriage ceremony. I also had the honor of speaking in 2 churches: New Liberty and Osceola 1st. New Liberty has always been special to me. It was the church I was saved in. It was kind of strange preaching there. Memories kept coming back to me as I walked through the church. Not much has changed since I went there. I hadn't been a member there for over 20 years. Osceola 1st was an interesting experience. I said a few words about my work here in Taiwan, then opened the floor to questions. I was suprised by the number of questions asked and the knowledge they knew about Taiwan.

2. Daniel celebrated his 6th birthday in the US. Had 2 birthday parties. I told him that he shouldn't expect that every year.

3. Began working at Pingtung National University of Science and Technology. It has the largest campus of any university in Asia. The scenery is breathtaking. When I turn to go into the school, the first thing I see is the outline of mountains. Great place to work.

4. Daniel graduated kindergarten. He was in the English skit. Who would have thought that?

5. Caitlin is almost 1 year old. She said "daddy" and daddy was happy.

6. Will be presenting a paper, "Human Rights Under Martial Law of Taiwan." Excited and nervous.

7. Celebrated my own birthday.

There are more things. I PROMISE to put up some pics whenever I download them out of my camera.
