If sinners be damned, at least let them leap to Hell over our bodies. If they will perish, let them perish with our arms about their knees. Let no one go there unwarned and unprayed for. ~ Charles Haddon Spurgeon

Party on the Roof!

The end of the spring semester means SUMMER is coming, but it also means that a lot of our fellow foreign teachers will be going back home to America for summer vacation. SAD FACE!
So as a last hurrah we gathered for a cook-out on the roof of our apartment!

Slushy-punch:
frozen lemonade, apple juice, orange juice, peach slices, a mashed-up banana and lemon slices.
A summer time drink for Brittany.

Getting all the tables set up...


Cooling off the drinks in true red-neck fashion: in tub of ice.  Really. That's Joelle's tub.


Is it really ever a party without devilled eggs?!





So there is a story to the green water.  It's not scooped out of a pond.
I saw this cute picture of a jug of water with colored ice cubes, so I thought I'd try it.
Apparently my ice cubes couldn't hold their color, so my beautiful plethora of teal, pink and yellow ice cubes turned into pond scum. SAD FACE!


I loved the atmosphere. Some of our friends will be moving to Shanghai or will be staying in America and we will miss them so much!  This was a great way to say good-bye.


Ah, how we have missed having a grill.  Thank you CHRIS AND KAREN for selling it to us. We're making sure it feels like part of the family.


What a blessing this group has been.  We prayed for the Lord to bring fellowship into our lives and He answered that prayer abundantly!
