Anyone who attended school in Chefoo, especially those who were interned in Weihsien, know who Jim Moore is. Former Chefoo student, he later joined the War effort with the US Navy, and in 1945 he was selected to join the small band of parachutists assigned to jump from 500 feet into a field beside the internment camp in Weihsien to officially liberate the 2,000 people who had...”

“...won’t go into, other than to say that I am very pleased that this was arranged by my former best friend, Francis (Rob) Joyce. Although he has not yet been reconciled to the Association, he has been reconciled to OMF, which is a blessing to them, and no doubt to him. lam encouraged. Needless to say, we have received very strong support from Richard Ronieczny, the Director of OMF International in Canada, and also from his Executive Assistant, Rose Carleton, to whom we are very grateful. Finally, my wife Sandra and I spent a wonderful three days in Connecticut this past May as we joined our Ruling American School Association 'family’ for our second RASA reunion. What was remarkable, among other things, is the leadership role that their G2—generation two-and even G3 are playing in the ongoing dynamism of this Association. This has been created and nurtured by the fact that the RASA reunions have and continue to be family affairs, made possible by their three day format. A highlight of the reunion...”

“...is wonderful. I like the letters to the editor, particularly the sweet letter from Vera (Tyler). You must feel pleased that you have created something worthwhile and enduring. Congratulations. Thank you for publishing my article, even if you did find it a wee bit irreverent. The reader for my book called me an amiable eccentric. I just reread it for the first time, and I guess I can see what you mean. Moses Chu, Tempe, Arizona I am privileged to be an associate member of the Chefoo School Association. For the past several years I have learned very much by reading your magazine. I hope it continues to prosper and be supported now by people who love to be a member though they never had the privilege to be educated in the CIM School. Faith (Rowe) Cooke, Derby, UK Many thanks for letting me know about (the passing of) David Bentley-Taylor. (His wife) Felicity (Houghton) actually phoned moments after I had read your email, so I was glad to have known. I had an amazing phone call from him just...”

“...celebration. And we could stay in all the homes of those who had prayed us out of prison. After a complete New Year’s thanksgiving in the bosom of our new Christian family for three days, we were taken back to the ship to land properly. The Red Cross met us and drove us to the CIM headquarters in Vancouver, and kindly outfitted us with warm winter clothes. Then we boarded the train for Toronto.* TRIP PLANNED TO VISIT KULING IN 2006 OR 2007 Organized by the Kuling American School Association The Kuling American School Association is organizing a trip to China that will feature Kuling. It is tentatively scheduled for either October 2006 or the Spring of 2007. They have very graciously invited Kuling CIM school alumni to join them. The general plan is to spend about seven days at Kuling, then people can break into groups, as they choose, to visit other parts of China. The overall time frame is one month, but people can choose to be in China for longer or shorter periods of time. Spearheading this trip...”

“...to make it a field office, which was good because it meant a promotion, and what not. I ended up there until I retired in January of '78. I have been in Dallas ever since, except we spent a year in Washington. They had one of these stupid deals that you couldn’t be a field chief unless you had a year of training in headquarters. But even there I was lucky because a man who was in charge of the Dallas office decided to leave early, so I went there within the year. KG: In looking back on your association with Chefoo Schools what impact did that have on your life? I think it certainly taught me respect for my elders. I think it taught me punctuality. It gave me a great love for the English. I am a great Anglophile; I mean they would keep telling me how great the British were. Pa Bruce said one time, in a class in geography, or something, that he had been to New York and it really didn’t compare to London, and actually I agreed with him completely. So I have always been a big admirer of the British...”

“...years in Africa (Ghana and Uganda) but the kids were growingand had to continue schooling. They had been mightily blessed by attending KPS - a beautiful little missionary rep school in Kapala, Uganda where I was stationed as District Medical Officer. When we arrived in Ontario in May 1969 there was, guess what - a doctor shortage or at least a shortage of doctors who would work in rural areas, and so the Nancekivilles (a good Devonshire name) welcomed us with open arms. Ivan and I worked in association in rural family practice until 2001 when I retired from office practice, but kept going looking after nursing home patients, which I still do. The other big recent change has been the closing down of our dairy farm (50 milking Holsteins) in May 2004 and selling it to a sod farmer four months later. I would have found this a devastating experience except that milk quotas brought a good price! Being semi-retired has enabled us to travel and we have been to China and Chefoo, Russia, Turkey, and...”
