Seth and Elizabeth's YASC Mission: September 2008
http://sethandelizabethtaiwan.blogspot.com/2008_09_01_archive.html
Wednesday, September 24, 2008. English Bible Study. Let's just say I was skeptical. Skeptical because I am not sure I'm qualified to lead a Bible study, and skeptical because, well, it just didn't sound appealing. That is, until last night. Last night was the official kick-off of the English Bible Study at the newest Episcopal Campus Ministry, the combined Episcopal/Anglican College Fellowship (Taipei). If you are interested in ordering or using any of these studies. Remember, Jesus had already forgiven ...

Seth and Elizabeth's YASC Mission: October 2008
http://sethandelizabethtaiwan.blogspot.com/2008_10_01_archive.html
Wednesday, October 22, 2008. First off, let me be forthright in saying this has been a very challenging and frustrating week for both of us. We have had a fair amount of trouble with communication and matching expectations between the Diocese of Taiwan and our own understanding of our work here. So, with this in mind, I would like to talk a little bit about dreams and the possibility of finding pinpoints of light in difficult situations. And Sewanee (The University of the South). Now, I'm not ready to co...

Seth and Elizabeth's YASC Mission: On the Bus
http://sethandelizabethtaiwan.blogspot.com/2008/12/on-bus.html
Wednesday, December 3, 2008. Car, or bus, or train, or subway. . . This week I have been thinking about convenience. This thought is closely tied to transportation. I'll get there soon. . . Convenience is usually how the value of things are gauged. Consider these (not-so) hypothetical scenarios:. 1: I am talking to a student at NTU who is from Kaohsiung (southern Taiwan). Me: Do you like living in Taipei? Student: I guess so. It's very convenient. Perhaps convenience is so highly valued by college studen...

Seth and Elizabeth's YASC Mission: July 2008
http://sethandelizabethtaiwan.blogspot.com/2008_07_01_archive.html
Sunday, July 27, 2008. Who says college kids won't get up early? The pictures you see here are from the real reason to get up at 7am. . . Toast! After we worship, we all head into the parish hall for toast and coffee or tea. Girdo, seen top right with Elizabeth, is the toastmaster. He is responsible for the setup of the toasters and the meticulous allotment of 4 pieces of toast and bagels for each person in attendance. No more, no less. Monday, July 21, 2008. Thank you to all of our partners in mission!

Monday, April 21, 2008. Dear Friends and Family,. As you might have noticed, we have added a few new elements to our page. The thermometer to the left shows you our fundraising status.

Seth and Elizabeth's YASC Mission: August 2008
http://sethandelizabethtaiwan.blogspot.com/2008_08_01_archive.html
Wednesday, August 27, 2008. I have been reading The Story of Edgar Sawtelle this past week. Apparently this book has become quite the sensation, particularly in Colorado since the author is from Colorado. Anyway, the book is about a boy and his dogs. Supposedly it is a reworking of Hamlet. Which makes the book a little disappointing, I mean, we all know how that one ends. Talk about a downer. They haven't heard of Nanshijiao, much less the An he Borough, which is our neighborhood. Another pinpoint of lig...

Seth and Elizabeth's YASC Mission: January 2009
http://sethandelizabethtaiwan.blogspot.com/2009_01_01_archive.html
Wednesday, January 7, 2009. Dear Family and Friends,. After a long absence, I am making an attempt to explain the big changes that occurred in the past 2 1/2 weeks. As many of you know through our emails, Elizabeth and I decided to return to Colorado from Taiwan. We left Taiwan on December 26th, the day after celebrating Christmas Eve and Christmas morning mass with two different congregations in Taipei. Peace (and more to come),. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom).
