My USA hometown church has the most beautiful reminder of my faith. Jesus praying in the Garden of Gethsemane
Jesus was accompanied by three Apostles: Peter, John and James, whom he asked to stay awake and pray . He moved “a stone’s throw away” from them, where he felt overwhelming sadness and anguish, and said “My Father, if it is possible, let this cup pass me by. Nevertheless, let it be as You, not I, would have it.” From Matthew 26: 36 – 38.
About connieinasia
I have been in the Asia region for 27 years as an English language teacher. A majority of those have been in China with the Amity Foundation , a Chinese NGO that works in all areas of development for the Chinese people. Covid stranded me in America for over 3 years, with China closing its boarders to returning teachers. In 2023, I was accepted into a new teaching role not in China but in Laos. Join me in experiencing this incredible journey into a different culture, a different language, and a different life.
