My wife Rhonda and I have been invited to teach in Chengdu, China at the University of Electronic Sciences and Technology. Chengdu is a city of about 12 million people who make up a small part of China's 1.3 Billion. I chose this picture of Chengdu as an introductory image since it seems to capture the juxtaposition of traditional and modern China. I have much to learn of both of these faces. Rhonda served an LDS mission in Hong Kong between 1976 and 1978 and has a love for the Chinese people. We are both excited to open our hearts to the people of China. We will do our best to understand and embrace them and their culture and hopefully help them understand something of ours. We look forward to making new friends.
