Sorry I really haven't blogged much, so will try and keep up! I HEAR YOU ALL SAY " KEEP UP KATHY" lol ( now only family will understand this sorry) :)
Well did you read the last blog, I think it really was just for me, when reading it back, It hit me every thing I had typed, don' t think it had really sunk in.
So feeling really blessed, and ready to move on!!
So as the title say's three week's, three days since arriving in Hong Kong, and in the world of Dean and Kathy the Lord has moved quickley. This is the first part, will add to it as we go.
Now where have \i got to telling you what happened. OH yes, we booked into the hostel where the church is held, and amazingly we wern't just on time we were early, but before you say it, we were still a little late for the start of prayers before the service, you just can not win !! lol!!! Why you ask, well? We had breky in the hostel so we just walked across a room to get to church, but Dean's brekky had other ideas and splattered his egg all over his shirt, so it had to be changed, can't go with egg on your shirt lol.
The hostel was clean, small, and pretty ropey, but it did the job , oh did I say it was exspensive, we could have had nearly six nights in a travel lodge, lol, thats hk for you.
So that was the 8th Jan 2012, church wassss Great !!! we met people we have been emailing, but as we hadn't said when we were arriving, the penny hadn't dropped that we were the mad couple from England that had been emailing for three years, the guy on the door knew who we were, we have had such love and support from his wife, so he knew :)
At the door Rob, yes Rob Rufus walked in and was introduced to us, to be honest, and I can be honest ( as i have told him ) I didn't recognise him, well it sounded like I was talking to someone famous( I know, I know, he is in certain circles) but boy he is not as tall as you would think, he was, is quite short ...i would have walked straight by him lol, But thankfully Dean knew who is was, and knew he was short as Rob had announced it in one of his sermons, I know of all the things to talk about!!
Well people were freindly, the worship group were fab, and Robs words hit home!
Also the church announced they were doing two weeks worth of leadership trainning course, so really worth a listen http://ccihk.com/en/component/biblestudy/?view=studydetails&id=428&templatemenuid=1
Don't know if this is the right link lol, new at this , will get Dean to check, did you know he checks all the blogs, so if the spelling wrong, grammer ect ect, its his fault, in love of course lol.
Now where were we oh yes nearly forget ...Apart from nice new people we met, we also had the pleasure of the company of the LOvely Cathey and Olliy there first trip to this church too, God's timming or what?? Yes it is God's timming.
After church we went for a nice lunch with Cathey and Ollie and their friends came too who were a great help, thank you Fiona and Andrew, who showed us there home in Sai Kung. and then pointed us in the direction of the town to have a look around, well what can we say, it's busy enough to have a buzz but not Mong kok busy, that you walk in the gutter!!, beautiful coastline with lots of fishermen selling there fish.
We did stay for tea at a fish resturant along the front, are you ready for these photosw, prepare your self! all I can say is it proberly was slightly nicer than it looks :)
These were Crab, and lobster in a noodle sauce, it was messy, yucky, and wont have it again!
We did have alovely walk along the front where we saw an amazing kite, and yes we took a photo!
Well,bmore to tell you but I think this is enough for now. Interesting place Sai Kung, most of the church lives here, so it would be a good place to live!! We shall see!!
Love to you all x
