We left Xi'an early on Sunday, August 20 and arrived home that same afternoon. There are always a lot of ceremonies and important people to meet when you sponsor a trip to China. UL - one of the leaders we work with in connection with Mama Jo's House. UR - This father represented the parents of the children we treated in Xi'an. They made two beautiful banners telling of their gratitude. On a banner much larger than the one pictured, they listed all the children we treated. LL - this husband and wife team lead a large (over 1,000 member) congregation of baptized believers near the city of Xi'an. As you can see our meeting place was not a church building. LR - The leader of the Xi'an Charity. He was the man who sanctioned BandS being there and the one who welcomed and told us good by. We were treated with hospitality and dignity and were assured that we would be welcomed back any time.

Great pictures Dad. We are ready for you to come visit Midland...I know it isn't as exciting as your other trips but kids feel like it has been too long since they have seen you! I have a meeting at work tonight and then Hutton has a game at 6:30. He is getting his letter jacket tomorrow at the pep rally so I will try and get some pictures on the blog.
