| Prayers as I go to China...I covet your prayers as our team embarks on a English-teaching trip to China in July. My thoughts run into each other in a chaotic mess when i think of the logistics, but i'm at peace as i look forward for the opportunities to come. See you back here soon! 
- Team Unity: Spending time with a
group of people for an extended period can bring about tension. While the team possesses good chemistry,
it’s been my experience that a lack of prayer coverage in this area often
leads us to lose sight of what the Holy Spirit may be doing. Pray that God would not allow it to be a
distraction and to keep us focused at the task on hand.
- Health: While we are mindful to get proper
rest, being in a foreign environment may lead some to be more susceptible
to sickness. Pray that God would
preserve our bodies so that we can use it to be His hands and feet to
bring about the Good News.
- Safety: Traveling to China will take almost
takes a day with multiple methods of transportation. Also, mobilizing a large group can be
challenging. In short, please pray
for protection and that our fear of the Lord would be greater than any
fear or apprehension spoken from Satan’s lies.
- Discernment: As the FECC team teaches various
classes & meets with students; pray that God would give us His eyes to
see the needs of the people, His ears to hear the cries of His heart, and
His voice in order to speak the words that God wants them to hear. We ask that our ministry will be lead by
the Holy Spirit and not by our own agenda.
- Personal Growth: While I do not know
what to completely expect while in China, I am firmly
convinced that God has been preparing me to make a spiritual impact for my
teammates and those that I will encounter during our stay there. Many people have invested their time,
energy and prayer into me and I pray that the Holy Spirit will empower me and
my FECC team members to be bold in testifying the life-changing truth of
just how great our God really is.
Thank you too all my brothers & sisters...God's been using each of you to be a blessing to me. 
p.s. I'll be praying for you Vision people as you go for Round 2...say hi to Pastor Stefan for me! 
A few snaps of the recent Mexico trip this past weekend:
Singing praise songs with the local kids!
Performing the "heart skit" that was picked up from my time in Vision!
Making kids cry. =(
Trying to cheer them up as well. =)
Thanks to the whole team, the New Yorkers, Pat, The Wongs, Yues, Tans, and CHANGS, Gary, my boys Jack & Stan...it was a great time!

Current
Praises:
1) Getting the blessing to go on the
China English-teaching trip in July!
2)
Realizing
that God not only puts up with me, but still loves me despite the times where I
act like the prodigal son’s prideful older brother.
3) Having the time to journal in the
stillness of my room before the start of a day.
4) Dad finding a job that allows him to carpool with my
mom…the idea is strangely adorable.
5) Spending time with my
bros as we yell at the refs, boo the Celtics and cheer on the Lakers to the
Championship!
6) The learning
process that goes on as we mark our 10th.
7)
Seeing
my dog excitedly wag her tail when she realizes I’m back home.
8) Being able to attend
the upcoming Mexico trip to visit Rudy,
Diose, & the baby.
9)
Finishing
one of my dental school applications.
10) Receiving fresh manna by listening to Pastor
Greg Laurie’s messages on my way to work.
