Passion Hong Kong 2010

What an amazing night we shared together with our students…worshiping! We know this is a little late in the month, but we wanted you to see and remember what you had been praying toward. I loved watching our students with wide eyes, take it all in.  The music, the energy, the lights, the sea of Chinese students, the message, and most importantly, JESUS - it was a beautiful night.

We left challenged to live for HIS story;  to live lives that are pushing CHRIST out in front.

For those that prayed for the event, THANKS!  Lives were changed and God-sized dreams were dreamed.  Hearts were asking “how can I make my life count for the thing that matters most?”  Thank you, thank you, thank you.

Pictures to come  soon!

May2010

This is a pretty common sight around the city.  These drivers service most all of Hong Kong for a starting fare of 18.00 HKD (a little over $2 USD).  It’s always an adventure jumping in a cab because more times than not, the drivers only speak Cantonese. If you don’t know how to  CLEARLY and CORRECTLY say where you are heading, you humbly pull up Google maps and start pointing.  It’s quite humorous and we usually get a chuckle out of the driver at the end of the process.  You might find yourself being told to buckle up before pulling away from the curb because if pulled over and passengers aren’t strapped in, the driver is slapped with a hefty fine.  Whether we are reminded our not, we buckle up because the majority of the cabbies seem to drive as if training for the Indy 500.

Safety first… thanks Hong Kong.

April desktop calendar

As for me, I am poor and needy, but the Lord takes thought of me. You are my help and my deliverer; do not delay, O my God! – Psalm 40:17

What a posture. What a bright blue bowl.

Take Exit E2 from the Mong Kok MTR station, and you will more often than not see this man and his bright blue bowl. If not him, then another gentleman sitting on the ground tapping a coffee cup next to the feet of the recent or soon to be passengers.

March desktop calendars

march2010thumbnail

Man, it seems like February flew by.  Well, that just means it’s time to update your desktop wallpaper with this newest image/desktop calendar.  For all you iPhoners, we’re trying out a size for you as well.  We’d love your feedback and we plan to bring you an iPhone size as each month’s image allows.  Again, our hope is that this serves as a consistent prayer reminder and conversation starter with friends or perfect strangers about what’s going on in Hong Kong.

The image you’re looking at comes from the Central area on Hong Kong island. More specifically, if you wanted to get to this tourist hot spot, you’d ask around for the SoHo Mid-Levels escalator area. Not only is this area home to some of Hong Kong’s deepest pockets, great shopping, and diverse dining, but also the world’s longest covered escalator, spanning 2,600 feet (800m).  That’s almost a half mile!  If only the image could have captured it all…

Completed in 1993 to ease the passage of residents getting home via taxi and minibus through the winding streets, this escalator served as a much-needed link from Central to the Mid-Levels area.  Passengers can get off at a number of different locations and explore the narrow streets and alleyways encountering  anything from poor street vendors and cheap Chinese food to dodging a Porsche zipping by at a crosswalk.  The journey up the escalator takes about 20 minutes and the steps beside it lead back down the hill (a BIG hill).  This is definitely an area that our team frequents; and I think I can speak for all of us  in saying that the Mid-Levels area would be a TOTALLY different experience without the convenience of this escalator. A…miserable experience could define it well, perhaps.

February desktop calendars

Below you’ll find a shot of Hong Kong’s well-known Victoria harbor and it’s surrounding buildings lighting the busy waters.  We hope to offer a new shot/calendar from around Hong Kong every month, so feel free to use it as your computer’s wallpaper. Each time you log onto your favorite social networking site or open up your e-mail, may you be reminded to pray for us! We want every picture to show you a different side of Hong Kong and offer a glimpse into what we see on a regular basis.  Maybe it will be  a conversation starter for friends and family who may not know what Grace Campus is all about… better yet, maybe it will be a conversation starter with a complete stranger at a coffee shop.

Tell people about it. Share it. Twitter it.  Do whatever you want with it. Tell people about Jesus with it somehow.  Thanks be to God that His presence and rescue is not confined to a specific continent, tongue, or organization.  He is FOR us, not against us.  We serve a big God who is jealous for His people to know His love for them.

Continue to pray for us as we seek the Father’s heart for this city. There are BIG things in store for the semester…we are confident in this!
