Chinese Rules!

Have I mentioned lately how exciting Chinese is?
Lately I've been doing telephone witnessing with our new Chinese publisher Yan Xiao Mei - so far we have started 3 studies by phone and she loves it. The other night just before I went to sleep one of the calls rang me back, just to say that now her son was asleep and she would like to talk some more about the Bible. So we read some scriptures and she thanked me very much since she has no one else to talk to about the Bible. I look forward to meeting her face to face one of these days. 
Also one of the studies I've been looking after for Damaris who lives close to our house - wants to come to the meetings. But since our Chinese meetings are at night I offered to take him to Spanish and translate. He rang me 4 times this Sunday to see if we could go (unfortunately I had forgotten so I told him definitely next week - my bad!) 
The week after the English Convention we are going to Peru for a week. Trujillo - 'the city of eternal spring' is packed with Chinese people and no one to witness to them. Also apparently near a good surfing beach...but that's beside the point. The plan is to get lots of phone numbers or email/messenger contacts because I have a feeling it won't be long until we have another Chinese publisher :)
And some time after all of this excitement there will be a sister from Luxemburg Chinese coming to stay with us for a week or so. CHINESE RULES!
