Today we had survival Chinese, TEFL, Chinese religions, and Chinese political systems classes. President Toronto, president of the China district (our group in Ji'nan will be a "twig" associated with the district) also talked with us. He emphasized the need to obey the Chinese laws and not discuss religion. Our job is to teach English and be good representatives of BYU, the United States and our religion. President Toronto shared with us the following quote. “While, like all members of the expatriate Church in China, you are messengers without the message, you will have the opportunity to bless the lives of many in many unexpected ways.”
At the end of the day, the Kennedy Center brought in food and we all enjoyed a Chinese dinner together. After dinner we watched the movie "To Live". It is a Chinese movie that follows the life of a family during the rise of communism in China. It was very interesting.
