What fun to be able to repay just a tiny bit of the hospitality that we experienced in Southeast Asia.
This weekend some of the people we met at the Autism Centre in Singapore were here in the US, visiting care centers for ideas. They were staying quite near us. So we showed them around the area all day Saturday and took them to one of our supporting churches in NJ on Sunday. During the coffee hour after the worship service they gave a very interesting presentation on the social services organized by the Anglican Church in Singapore, and especially the Autism Centre.
But, we learned that you always seem to end up on the receiving end when these people are around. Before leaving they gave us a beautifully embroidered Chinese hanging representing dozens and dozens of children, so that we could remember them and their work.
How could we ever possibly forget!
