We found our two and a half month base in a nice cozy unit of a town house in Oakleigh East, Melbourne. We believe God had prepared this simple resting place for us. When we prayed for accomodation here, Peggen extended her invitation to us to crash in with her two other housemates for a month. Later she further opened her place to us for another month. We traced this provision to God's grace.

Our first encounter with Peggen was seven years ago in International College, Penang. She was a student in IC and we knew her through the Christian Fellowship where we worked closely with. It has been a blessing to see her grow in the Lord and staying strong even after her stepping into a foreign land. Her involvement in OCF Monash University and now Planet Uni (Planet Shakers' ministry) is commendable. Peggen is a tangible fruit of campus ministry. We thank God for this kind and lovely young lady.

There wasn't a problem at all to blend into this small community. We eased into this family of God quickly especially our children. There is no reservation at all. Nat being the most shy amongst our three kids was already enjoying her new friends the very first moment. Needless to mention Chrisa, our youngest and most boisterous was so "kam cheng" with them. Ash, whose always sharp quickly picked up that Rachel must love ballet as she spotted a pair of toe shoes tucked somewhere and a calender featuring a ballerina in her room. After just two days, they connected so well that Rachel decided to treat them to an Australian ballet show, much to the delight of Ash. God knows the desires of our hearts and He doesn't have favourites - He cares even for the "not so important" detail.
