照片分享 (Photos):See below.

The photos are divided into three parts: Part One taken by me at St. James' Church on the afternoon of Monday, November 19; Part Two taken at the monastery Sheng'ai Villa (or Holy Love Mountain Villa), and mostly shared by the Rev. Leo Wen-Bin Tzeng (曾文斌牧師) on Facebook; Part Three, the final two pictures, taken by someone else on Sunday, November 18, at St. John's Cathedral, in Taipei. I like all these pictures so much that I'd like to keep them all in my blog for future reference -- and for further sharing!

附註 (My Personal Notes)

I was honored to be one of the two lay persons (the other one being Mr. Miles Lackey from Trinity Church Wall Street) who participated in this wonderful Retreat.

I was invited to be an interpreter (or translator) of the keynote speeches presented by the Rev. William Lupfer and of the Bible Studies led by Rev. Canon Benjamin. It was a big challenge, something very exciting to me, that I did the "consecutive interpreting" without having met the main speaker (Rev. William) until the very morning when he showed up at the monastery, Holy Love Mountain Villa (聖愛山莊).
