Hangzhou Day 3: A visit to the lake, church, and more fireworks!

Here is the next video in our "Spring Festival 2010 Celebration Series." We will probably have another 2 that we put up in the next week or so. I hope you like it!


Hangzhou Day 3:



Also, I want to say that the common theme that we have seen run throughout this trip is one of hospitality. The Chinese culture in general is unbelievably hospitable and the people take great joy in spoiling their guests in many ways, but always by providing more food than they could ever eat! Yet, as you know, this should not only a cultural thing because it is also very biblical to be hospitable. Therefore, in light of this and in light of the zeal and passion you saw our "Chinese father" Timothy preach with, I was reminded of the verse below, and encourage you to reflect on it:

Love must be sincere. Hate what is evil; cling to what is good. Be devoted to one another in brotherly love. Honor one another above yourselves. Never be lacking in zeal, but keep your spiritual fervor, serving the Lord. Be joyful in hope, patient in affliction, faithful in prayer. Share with God's people who are in need. Practice hospitality.
