I am leaving for Inner Mongolia where I will be living for the next two months. The folks here have made arrangements for me to work with a group of house church leaders and about 20 Sunday School Teachers. We will be using an English teaching set-up to cover our tracks. This way the folks I am working with can come and go freely under the guise of learning English. My former student Jia Wei will be doing the translating; he has a PhD in simultaneous translation. .

The folks I am working with to arrange all of this are really excited about what we are going to be doing, but they are also a little apprehensive because of all of the deportation of Westerners over the last year. Therefore they are being very careful about the arrangements for the work we will be doing, where I will be living and traveling arrangements.

I will try and keep you up to date as much as possible as things proceed, but I am not certain about the internet accessibility in some of the locations.
