I have put together my 2019 bi-lingual (English and Chinese) calendar. This year’s theme is China’s four seasons. These are made of photos I have taken on my travels within China. I have included a pdf file for your review. If you are interested, you can shoot me an email or come by my office. They are going for 45 each or 150 for 4. Part of the proceeds will go towards grocery shopping and daily necessities of Huge Grace Orphanage that my wife has been supporting for many years. Thank you.
