We got a really big surprise about our activities on tuesday, when we arrived at the orphanage there were three reportters for the Fushun Daily paper who interviewed various members of the team as well as the orphanage director and some of the orphans. It was such an amazing experience. The asked us about our visit, what we were doing here and why we were taking care of orphans. They had assumed that we worked for Visiting Orphans. It was so cool, I stood there and listened as Natalie exclaimed to the reporter that we were here to take care of the orphans because we were believers in Jesus Christ, we got big smiles and nods from the reporter when that was translated. Praise God. They were very touched by all of the team members who had adopted chinese kids (or grandkids) and said that we hold a place of honor here. They wanted to tell all of Fushun about why we were here. The article was in the paper on wednesday morning and we are going to have Maggie translate for us.
In addition to the newspaper the Television station of fushun was also here. They spent all morning doing interviews and filming for a segment that was going to show on TV on wednesday night. We have not seen it yet but the orphanage people were really impressed with the coverage. PRAISE GOD!!!!!
