We are so excited to have Anna participate in the microcampus program.  If not a life changing experience, it will definitely be a memory that lasts a lifetime.  Ive been pleased to see how dedicated Anna is to her project.  We discussed it at length in the beginning and she's kept me posted as she fine tunes it. Im also excited that she can incorporate her love of photography. 

I'm feeling excited and a bit nervous to send my son to the Mircrocampus in 10 days time. Yes, that's exactly what a mom feels about her child's absence within her sight for nearly one month. But anyway, go and explore the world independently, and have fun! 

One week just passed by... the best moment is to read the journals from the students. Glad that everything is going well and there have been obviously a lot of learnings by them. Pray that the next three weeks will be even better. 

Attended the parent meeting and met some of the other parents. It'll be a great experience for the kids, and I can't wait for Kristen to start her adventure!

Hi

I'm Kimbra, Hannah Power's Mum, and in 108 hours... there'll be a little part of me missing... wandering around Xizhou.

I'm excited and nervous at the same time, Hannah is our oldest daughter, and I know life won't be the same without her here.

How are all you other parents feeling?

Cheers

Kimbra

Let the adventure begin!!! So excited for our intrepid travelers! Can't wait to live vicariously through you!

Nina,
My colleague and I had a business meeting in my office today and we worked on a challenging project together for a few hours. At one point we got stuck and she looked at my board and said - let's use saying #6 today -'the mind is like a parachute, it doesn't work if it is not open'.

I smiled as these are all the sayings you wrote on my board as your advice to me so I can have success at work :-)

Here they are for you in case you and your friends need energy for the projects you are working on these days.
Love you very much my sunshine - your mom.

I am currently traveling in Israel and Europe and have told many people about the Microcampus, concept and month away from home. Responses have been unanimous in what an amazing opportunity this represents, from immersing yourself in a new environment, not seen by many as part of your studies.

In case you miss our sofa and the view - but, not much to miss as you can see...
We would all rather be in Xizhuo with you to enjoy sun, clear air, fun company, beautiful green fields and blue lake!
Have a great day - IFG, IFG
