In the beloved tale of Hansel and Gretel we are reminded of how brothers and sisters rely on each other for the courage and strength to find their way out of “danger’s” wood. As we go to the “middle kingdom” for our English camp we have no dangers to fear in China but we do have “brothers and sisters” going with us, as well as those we will meet, that will help us with special courage and strength.

Our Chinese friends have much strength and courage to offer us and we have a strength that we will be offering to them as well.

Jinan, in Shangdong Province, is one of the 42 million plus cities of China with a population of 5.69 million people. It has been inhabited for over 4000 years and has a rich cultural and significant history. We are very excited to be given the opertunity to serve the chinese people of Jinan. Please keep us in the thoughts of your hearts as we reach out to the people of Jinan with what lives within our hearts through English.
