Volume 3, Issue 12



He’s here! Corbin Nolan was born November 30, 2009 at 7:35 AM weighing 8lbs 10 oz and 20.5 inches long. We are super excited to have two boys! It has been great watching Kanyon adjust to being the big brother helping out where he can.

M’Lynn is doing great recovering and caring for Corbin. Corbin immediately took to eating and sleeping. We are thankful for all your prayer support during this pregnancy. We feel strengthened and encourage daily knowing you guys are standing with us in this great adventure of teaching in China and raising two young boys.

Generous: Year End Giving/Update

We love being generous with our time and resources with students, teammates, and colleagues. We love sending out newsletters updating the work in Harbin. We love uploading photos of the kids, students, and life in China along with the occasional video. We love keeping the blog website updated with stories from China that don’t make it into these newsletters. All of this is possible by your generous gifts.

Please remember our work as you consider year end giving. We are currently 66% funded ($21,868 funded with $11,317 remaining). We appreciate beyond measure those yearly gifts and monthly pledges that have gotten us this far. While we have a positive account balance now, we will be in the red at the end of this school year without your help. We love being in China and look forward to many years serving here!

Beijingers

We’ve enjoyed living here in Beijing this past month. We participated in two huge Thanksgiving celebrations with a total of 5 turkeys! We hadn’t seen that many turkeys at a Thanksgiving meal since ever. The celebrations quickly were one-upped by the arrival of Corbin! We are so thankful to be surrounded by incredible people here that watched Kanyon for a couple of days while we were at the hospital.

The passport paperwork is all started and we expect to get Corbin’s passport back in about a week. Then we’ll return home to Harbin in time to celebrate Christmas with our teammates. If we make it back in time, there are rumors of Corbin being baby Jesus in a performance for students. Now that will be fun!
