This will be a series on the Concordia English Center in Macau and the work we
do there.
Who's Who
Sharon Owens is a career professional (DCE), and the Director of the Concordia English Center. She has been in Macau over seven years. She has initiated many changes and helped put the Center on a good footing. We have paid students who help pay the day-to-day expenses of the Center. Sharon has a full time and some part time paid administrators. Most of the teaching staff is from the United States and they are volunteers supported by their churches in the States, though the center provides us with furnished housing. Sharon also has wider responsibilities for other Asian Centers already opened or opening. Sharon has adopted a daughter, Joanna, from a Taipai (Macau) Orphanage (Joanna's picture is in a November part of the blog called people and places). Pictured with Sharon is Paul U, Mary Eddy U's husband. He is a graduate of Concordia in Seward, NE and a Macau native.
