Sustaining Grace

Posted on January 4, 2006 by Jo

Blogging has been light this past week.  My niece and a couple of here friends are visiting Beijing, so I spent the weekend running them around town.  Back to work now, so they’re on their own, armed with map and cell phone.

I also moved into crisis management mode this week.  The father of one of my colleagues (in another city) died suddenly while here in China visiting her.  It fell to me to help get her and her mother back to the US, as well as make the arrangements for the repatriation of the body back to the US.  It is without doubt, one of the most difficult things I’ve had to do in my job. 

I know many of you who read this were praying. Thanks.  All of us were the recipients of much sustaining grace.
