Katherine had the opportunity to go with some of her friends to Austria! I asked her to send me some photos. True to Katherine style, most photos were of flowers....and all photos were beautiful!!!
Bad Gastein, Austria
Salzburge, Austria
This was one of the girls (Angela) that I got to teach in Sunday school over the summer. She came to the Chinese church but mostly speaks English and German because she lives in Germany. She came for the summer to stay with relatives. We had some really great conversations, and we were able to give her a Bible to take back with her. She was very grateful.

cows in Austria!
I was able to meet with Patrizia for lunch one day. It's always good to catch up.
Oh...there she goes...solo flight to Austria....it's just out of order.
crazy Shadow...he just wanted to hug my hand. I guess he thought I was going to leave him, too.

We were eating at the table and Angela said to Katherine, "I can't help but think you look just like my friend in Germany. But I don't want you to be offended because he is a guy." I asked to see a picture. This was the only one she could find, but wow. I can see why she thought that! Her friend has long hair and glasses and the same color blonde.
Walking around Rome
We had Chunlei and her family over for dinner. We had a good time getting to know them better. Jonathan made his homemade pizza.
After dinner, we played spoons. Jasmine thought it was hilarious! She loved the game so much! Apparently, she has asked her mom several times a day if they can come back over.
Good Sunday school group today! The hardest part about this group is not knowing how many or what ages will show up...when it ranges from 3yrs to 17yrs it's nearly impossible to plan right.
