| Madelyn and friends on the last day of school! Madelyn is wearing the good-bye shirt Concordia gives to all students leaving the school. |

| Loved this scene... teachers wave good-bye to the buses as they leave on the last day of school. |
 |
| Gwenny on Mingyue Lu, the street both our housing compound and Concordia are on. Walked this way 1000 times! |

| Lights out, Shanghai... we've loved you! |
In college, Scott sang with a group called New Grace. On weekends throughout the school year, they traveled in a several state area to perform in churches. They ended every concert with the same song... and on this last day in Shanghai, the day we move back to the US, it is running through my head.
The time has come, O Lord, for us to leave this place.
Guide us and protect us, and lead us in new grace.
Wherever life may take us, as we go our separate ways,
Help us share with others the things we've shared today.
May the peace of God the Father, and the love of Christ His son,
Guard us in the days ahead, and strengthen us each one.
May the blessings of the Spirit fill us from within.
God bless us and return us to this fellowship once again.
Last day... need to pack up, need to say good-bye to this city and the amazing community we have found here. Strengthen us, Lord, with grace for the next adventure!
