Rachel an mk to China

Hi guys! Sorry i haven't posted in a long time, i've been busy. Ok so lets get started. So this is a story i wrote about a real mk. She is now a mom, but this is about her time in China.:

Rachel woke up Sunday morning and did her regular 4 year old routine. Get dressed and try to do her hair; which her mom had to fix.  And drive to church telling her parents how she was excited to go to her preschool class; she thought this was the same Sunday as all the other ones. But never did she know that that day her life would change for the rest of her life. 

                This Sunday instead of the Pastor preaching, a missionary to China talked about well…China. She noticed that after that Sunday her parents were praying a lot more than usual. Then one day they told little Rachel they were moving to China to be missionaries. All Rachel understood was that she had to leave her friends and go to a strange place. She was still 4 years old when they moved to China. Her parents always were talking to Students from college, and they were sometimes crying or praising God. She could never really talk the other little kids, so she only really could talk to God, her dolls, and her toys. Life was going kind of slow. Once she was eight she started learning Chinese, it was hard so it took 3 years to learn. Once she knew it she could make friends and go the movies that were in Chinese. She had been going to an International school, so now it was easier to talk there too.  Her family and she went on many mission trips, some to Thailand, and in the country side.   

                She was 14 when she went back to America; she now looks back at the good memories in China when she was an mk. Even though sometimes she was lonely, she loved being in China.  

Yes Rachel is now a mom and is married, but that doesn't mean she is not an mk anymore. Once an mk, forever an mk. You don't 'retire' from being an mk. But some people are mks, but then when they grow up they become missionaries.
