In January, Dave went with a group from Grace to China. They visited several places in Guang Xsi province. They were able to teach English and music and to perform a concert. God touched the lives of many people as they experienced the concern and care each person on the team showed to them. It was a blessing for Dave to go, and he says his life will never be the same again. "I tell you the truth, whatever you did for one of the least of these brothers of mine, you did for me," Jesus said in Matthew 25:40, New International Version.

On the second night, the students of the school blessed the team with the gift of an awesome program including traditional dance. This one is called the "Crane Dance".

Another dance performance.

Each night, over 4000 people attended the performances.

People loved to have their picture taken with Dave. We never knew he was so popular!

Please pray for the next trip in July. It should be a little warmer then!
