Feeling isolated during the extended lockdown in Hanoi? Do you miss having in-depth conversations with friends? Would you like the opportunity to hang out with HIF pastors, ministry leaders, and other HIF’ers during the week? We, too, long to stay engaged and interact with our beloved HIF community while we are unable to gather.

Each week, a different volunteer ‘host’ will present a topic that interests them, and we’ll talk about it in an informal yet focused discussion. Topics can be anything: a passage of Scripture that has helped you recently, a new hobby, your favorite book, a unique trip or experience, or a facet of your native culture that we may not know about – the sky is the limit!

Join us on Zoom for the following upcoming Conversations:
Today, Saturday, August 7 at 2PM – Journey to Wellness (host: Linda Bloemberg)
Thursday, August 12 at 7pm – My Lockdown Journey (host: Marian Tabjan)
Thursday, August 19 at 7pm – Plastic-Free in Hanoi (host: Yvette Middleton)

Do you have something that you’d like to share? Email Sarah for more information, share a topic idea, or volunteer to be a conversation host in the coming weeks.
August 12 at 7PM – My Lock-down Journey (Marian Tabjan)
“On the last week of February 2020, I went back to the Philippines to enjoy a brief break with family. Barely a few days after arriving in Manila, news broke about the Covid pandemic, and I experienced my first lockdown in an unfamiliar place. Weeks turned into months, and then a year and many more weeks after that. In hindsight, all I can say is ‘Many are the plans in a man’s heart but it is the LORD’s purpose that prevails’ (Proverbs 19:21).” I hope you can join me this Thursday evening as I share my story!
When: Thursday, August 12 from 7:00-8:00PM (may go longer) Where: HIF Zoom Channel Meeting ID: 840 0605 6545 Passcode: 524965
