Surprises

This week in good old Cheonan, has been full of surprises. On Monday, one of the Korean teachers that I work with was proposed to. Our boss had told us about a week ago that we were having a very important meeting that night with the foundation directors of our school. We were all really nervous about the meeting, but about 5 minutes before we headed out the door, our boss informed us of what was going on. We stayed quiet so that Jessica wouldn't figure out the surprise. We went to a cafe on the KNU campus. When we walked in there were candles on all the tables and a guy playing a guitar. He started singing Jason Mraz "I'm yours." After that song, he started playing a song and Jessica's boyfriend walked out from behind the projection screen with some flowers. He picked up a microphone and started singing a song that he had composed. It was beautiful. After the song, we watched a slideshow and then he got on one knee and proposed to her. It was adorable and I am so happy that I got the opportunity to share that evening with them.

The second thing to happen this week occurred on Tuesday. A couple that I work with have been expecting a baby and yesterday they welcomed Ella Renee into the world. I got the chance to go and see them today at the hospital. She is beautiful and I am so happy for this amazing couple! They are going to be great parents. I will soon post pictures of this adorable little girl. Not only did Michael and Elizabeth have a baby yesterday, but Joe, another teacher that I work with, welcomed a little baby boy into the world. Apparently this is baby season and I love it!

Other than that, things have been pretty normal. In a couple weeks I am going to get the privilege to lead a bible study about women of the bible. I am extremely nervous to take this on, but I know that God is going to use this opportunity to help me grow spiritually. I am very excited for it!
