Bringing sunshine into children's lives
Part 2
|
The second school occupied the
second floor of a factory that made electrical equipment. Their workers
had come to Nanjing from rural areas seeking a better life, and their
children attended this school. The headmaster was a kindhearted man who
demanded strict discipline. The opening activities included performances
by the children. The older children gave a demonstration of a traditional
form of Chinese martial arts, using folding fans that, when opened on cue,
give out a sharp report. |

After Wednesday afternoon, the
group taught at the factory school on Thursday and Friday mornings. The
group's main purpose for coming to China was to work in the migrant
schools, but they did provide opportunities for Chinese college and
seminary students to enjoy dialogue and culture exchange, at Lynn's school
and at the seminary. |

In addition to these
activities, the group visited the Amity Printing Company, where more than
30 million Bibles have been printed in the past 20 years, and visited
Amity Foundation offices for fellowship and orientation. The Virginians left Nanjing on
October 22 for further sightseeing in China, having given great joy to a large number of people, children and
college students. |
