Saturday August 3
Today is our last full day in Taiwan. Late last night, Tina came back, another surprise, having taken the last train from Hsinchu. After breakfast, we debriefed yesterday's activities and did our daily devotions, we then spent the day debriefing our two weeks in Taiwan, starting a little after 9 AM. A few minutes after noon, we went across the street to eat lunch. We met Daniel and Emily Ko there. Daniel is a former colleague of Marshall at TRW who works here in Taipei and his wife works at Tamsui. They are also good friends of Jennifer and Willis and Jocelyn. After lunch, Daniel drove us to a fresh fruit market where we bought watermelons, mangos and pineapples to snack on in the afternoon, after dinner, and breakfast tomorrow, We continued debriefing at 2 PM, finally finishing at 5 PM, about 6 hours total in a room with one underpowered air conditioner and four hard working electrical fans, so it was like being in a sauna the last three hours. The debriefing was sweet, emotional at times, but quite edifying as we reviewed what God had done and praised Him for clarifying some future directions for some individuals. We rested for an hour, and went along the river walk to eat at various vendor booths in Tamsui, returned home to shower and pack. Charmaine and Tania are leaving us at 5 AM tomorrow morning to catch an 8 AM flight to Hong Kong, but the four Taiwan students, Mickey (a she not a he), Tina, Adam, and Terry are joining us to sing at Agape Church tomorrow before we part ways.
