“...\Ne have tried to keep as many Chefoo traditions as possible. One of those is a Chefoo birthday with a cake of the child's choosing, a present from all the children and staff, and a special meal. Martin Tonge was our first to celebrate his birthday at the Hostel. He chose a dumper-truck cake and we all went out for a ‘sushi’ meal. Even though the schedule is tight (leave 7.30am and return approx 4.30pm) we are still able to have quiet time (devotions) before 7am breakfast and Evening Prayers after the evening meal, when people within the mission who are sick are regularly prayed for.
A real joy and excitement for us all is the new electric piano that will be arriving this month (November). This has been bought with generous gifts from the Chefoo Schools Association in memory of David Michell. Six out of our seven students take piano lessons so the piano will be well used. Thank you.
