Reflections from Pastor Kolonich….

10/23/10 10:03 PM

Ephesians 2:10 For we are God’s workmanship, created in Christ Jesus to do good works, which God prepared in advance for us to do.

It has been 2. 5 years since I was last in Hong Kong. It was such a joy to be reunited with old friends: Charles, Ivan & Hilda. It was good to meet up again with newer friends Travis & Debbie who we met in South Dakota during their summer exchange program in July. And it was good to meet Bryn for the first time, even though I have feel like I knew her already. (Jennifer and I were in Japan with her sister Stacey.)

The team feels incomplete without Bill & Roberta Hilgendorf, however God’s ways are not our ways. Romans 8:28 And we know that in all things God works for the good of those who love him, who have been called according to his purpose. We continue to lift them up in our prayers that God would open the doors for them so that they can join the team coming from St. Louis in November.

God has paved the way for us here in Hong Kong. Super Typhoon Megi was aiming for a practically direct hit on Hong Kong earlier this week. Our creator, God, who commands the wind and the waves redirected the typhoon away from Hong Kong.

Today (Saturday 10-23) we will be participating in an open house for MCDH school, when prospective families come to view and learn more about area schools. We will also be making a lot of rice krispy treats!
