“...(formerly CIM) today meets the challenge of caring for and supporting their missionary children. It is night and day from what we China Chefusians experienced, and also our early post-China home schools in the Orient, and hostels in our homelands. There is much more effort to educate children, if not at home, then close to home. Home schooling—out of the question in Hudson Taylor's mind—now flourishes, with a full time position established by OMF called Coordinator of Home School Support. Another position was created some years ago called International Coordinator of TCK (Third Culture Kid) Care and Education. Here a significant effort is made to keep in touch with MKs when they return to their home counties, to assist them in their 'third culture' transitions. One of our Chefoo Schools Association Vice-Presidents, Barry McKessor held this position for many years until his recent retirement, and he has been replaced by David and Ros Dykema. Upon retiring Barry also resigned his CSA Vice-...”

“... A special orientation program is provided for the children in Singapore. Help is also given to children and parents as they return to their passport country, and camps are organised to help the children in their adjustment. It was interesting to find out that there are 180 International Schools being used by OMF (including Faith Academy,) and 160 local schools. Ninety children are being given home schooling and only twenty-five are using boarding schools. There are 110 using on-line education or a mixture of the above. Fifty young adults aged between 18 and 24 are supported and included in the program. I am glad that David Dykema has become one of the Vice Presidents of the Chefoo Schools Association and I trust that we as individuals will continue to empathise with, support and pray for those who, like us, have the unique experience of being Third Culture Kids. I left Singapore confident that families with children are being very well cared for. My only small doubt was that parents would...”

“...entire sub-culture. CM: Yes, I think it is quite remarkable that the Chefoo Schools Association was founded in 1908, and is still going strong over a hundred years later, even though most are now well on in life. We are losing a lot of people through attrition, when they die, and we are not adding new people, but the Association is still here, and The Chefoo Magazine has been published every year since 1908, often at least twice a year in the past, and it has had a lot to do with the ongoing life of the Association. RHB: That's good. In my research, I found a big relationship between those people who are culturally homeless, experience lower self-esteem. But belonging to these sub-cultural organizations, or even being comfortable calling each other 'missionary kids', or 'military brats', helped or buffered the negative effect (i.e., low self-esteem) of cultural homelessness. Being part of the Chefoo Schools Association has had a lot of benefits in keeping people connected to each other and...”

“...The Chefoo Magazine, 2011 Page 38 (Conclusion of ‘No Place to Call Home’, continued from page 37) CM: My observation, and from what I have learned from others, is that in general, Chefusians who suffered more severely from cultural homeless, and had difficulties in their identity development, were less likely to be active in the Chefoo Schools Association. They seem to have been alienated from the Association, which is unfortunate. This is not to say, of course, that most people who have not been involved were culturally homeless. One certainly could not make that point. Unfortunately the days are gone when we could do some research on this, if we ever could, given how dispersed Chefusians are throughout the world. Well Raquel, thank you for taking the time from your studies to share with us concepts, ideas and research findings- even your own experiences as a cross-cultural kid - about individual identity development of people like Chefusians who experienced a cross-cultural upbringing...”

“...first rate job in arranging a similar feast at this restaurant, owned and operated by his friends who came to Canada from Fujian province. The Oriental Taste Restaurant may well be our new home for our regular Toronto Chefoo Schools Association dinners, now that China House, where we met 43 times since that restaurant opened its doors in 1960, has closed. It was particularly interesting to learn of Bob and Jim McMullan's connections with GFA. Says Bob: "George Findlay Andrew was a close friend of my family in Chefoo. His wife once looked after my sister, Betsy, and me when our parents were away. A very holy lady, unlike GFA who was a CIMer with amazing outside interests. He would visit and go out fishing with my Dad off Bottle Rock. His younger son, Mervyn, was a boarder at Chefoo School and would visit us. During the War GFA was top man in Chungki ng for British Intelligence. My uncle, Lt Colonel Jimmy McMullan, worked with him, together with his wife Rose. Those who were at Weihsien will remember...”

“...The Chefoo Magazine, 2011 Page 41 In Memoriam Victor Funnell, Chefoo/Yantai Letter from Victor's son, Edward, to Mr. Peter Bazire. I am not sure that either you or the Chefoo Schools Association are aware but I just wanted to let you know that my father, Dr Victor Funnell, passed away last year at the age of 83% years old. He died peacefully at home in Umbria in Italy (where he had lived since 2001) on Monday, 8th March 2010, from a minor heart attack and "old age". He now rests at peace next to our late mother, Jeanne Funnell, at Winchelsea Church in East Sussex. Our dad meant a lot to us and it's not been the easiest year for myself and my brother, especially in sorting out his affairs when I live in England and he was in Italy. The youngest child of Reverend Henry and Mrs Kathleen Funnell, both missionaries in China, Victor Funnell lived a long, full and, I think, fulfilling life. Born on 26th October 1926 at Sharding (excuse my phonetic spelling!) and delivered by the late Dr Hillier...”

“...his first trip, in 1989, he went with a group of Chefoo School students to Chefoo and Weihsien; he kindly paid for his two sisters to accompany Naomi and him. On his second trip, in 1992, he went to teach English in a summer school session at the August 1st Agricultural College in Urumqi, Xinjiang Autonomous Region, with a group from the Grand Canyon University. His third visit was in 1997 when he visited mission stations in Shangzhuo and Shanyang, Shaanxi—his roots. He paid his three sibling's way—just the four siblings went. He also made two trips to Norway, in 1972 with his family, and in 2004 for his 50th wedding anniversary when he and Naomi went by boat along the coast of Norway to see all the places where his father had preached. In 1996 he visited England, making contact with several of his schoolmates from China. He was very loyal to Chefoo and Chefusians. He was assistant to the North America branch of the Chefoo Schools Association for a while. Stanley was well versed in Mandarin...”
