My sister got engaged! Angela (in the floral dress) got engaged to David (blue polo) and my older sister and her family flew in to surprise her at the engagement party. Peek our denim dress code, or at least half of us got the memo. :-)

Here is (most of) our staff team for the 2024-2025 school year (plus a couple babies)! What a blessing it was to spend time with them. Please be praying for our team as we join in with what God is doing on our campuses! (If you would like to pray for our campuses individually, we are at: UTD, UNT, TWU, NCTC, TWU-Dallas, Dallas College Richland Campus, SMU, UTA, TCC - NE, TCU, Collin College - Plano, McKinney, Frisco, and Wylie).

We had a cultural-wear appreciation day at church this past month! Really, I just wanted to see other people wear cool clothes and have an excuse to do so, so I texted a bunch of people to wear clothes from their own culture or a culture that they appreciated.

Obligatory picture of Steph! It is her birthday on September 3rd! What a blessing it is to have someone who has partnered alongside me in ministry and life. This was taken at a good friend's baby shower; in fact, this friend, Ryan Reynolds (not the Ryan Reynolds) was my co-leader when I led a small group for FOCUS in the fall of 2017. How time flies!

Happy Thanksgiving!! I hope y'all had a wonderful week and got to eat yummy food! :-) It's been a crazy month!! Our church had our annual fundraiser for the kids' ministry. We flew in Iain Provan for a weekend to speak at a joint-church service and Pizza Theology. I got to see a few movies—something that I've not done in a little while. Birthdays, parties, funerals, dinners. And today is Giving Tuesday! (And the month is still not done yet!) If you haven't heard, FOCUS has an annual fundraiser called Keep FOCUS Growing. A generous subset of our supporters has pledged to match over $55,000 in donations that come in during this fundraiser campaign which officially ends today! If you haven't yet, would you consider donating? To learn more and to donate, visit anyfocus.org/kfg ! We will also be posting updates on our Facebook page today. For a taste of what God is doing on our college campuses, read through this short testimony from Josh at UTA that was posted yest...

It was my grandpa's 90th birthday and so we all surprised him by visiting Taiwan. The last time we all came back as a family to Taiwan was for his 70th birthday, 20 years ago. Here is a picture of all of us, including my cousins, and our significant others, and children (if applicable). I am so thankful for the opportunity to go back and spend time with my family! Here's the most readily available picture I could find of us, probably around 20 years ago, in my grandparent's house. The angle of the picture is close to the same, the flooring is the same. Not much has changed.
