Tomorrow, both of us will be flying off to the States for the very first time in our lives! We will be attending WorshipGod 11, a worship music conference hosted by Sovereign Grace Ministries in Gaithersburg, Maryland. Hope to share more about our travels soon! —————————- Update: here’s the full series of our time in the USA. Just a quick update on our life: - We’re moving house in less than a week: no white picket fence (it’s brown) but still a massive blessing from God to be able to call a place our home!

It was an excellent time to really take a breath, get to know the extended family on the Chong side of the tree, and have our spiritual batteries recharged, so to speak. Several observations about Kuching, and Malaysia: It’s hot! Temperatures ranged from [...] When you read this, Cheryl and I, along with our sisters and another friend, will be in the air and en-route to my birthplace of Kuching, Malaysia, where we’ll be for the next two weeks. It’ll be a great opportunity for Cheryl especially, to meet the folks that populate my dad’s side of the family tree [...] Thought I would just briefly share a song that has filled my mind all day for the last week or so. Text is copied and pasted from Sovereign Grace Ministries. As William said to me – what a powerful refrain. Those of you who knew me a little younger than I am today will [...] One of the questions Cheryl and I worked through soon after our marriage was the issue of changing her name. We talked and prayed it through for a couple of days during our honeymoon, before she eventually decided to adopt my family name and become a “Chong”.
