Handel’s Messiah – in China?
YES! Despite the original location being cancelled just three days before the event, Handel’s Messiah was performed last night at a local university’s auditorium. Although Sara and I arrived with some of our Chinese friends in plenty of time the place was already PACKED. The venue sat 800, but easily another 300 were jammed in with another mob outside trying to get in (including us).Perhaps the perfect metaphor for the desire people here have to hear the Truth. May this time of year bring questions. And may you and I be ready with The Answer.
1) Standing room only on the inside, 2) same story on the outside – what a great problem to have!
Myself, Sara and local friends.
