John (Chi Hang) Sin came to Idaho Falls as an exchange student from Macau, China. Jaxon went to school with him and they became friends. After that school year John left, but he and Jaxon kept in contact. John loved his experience so much that he wanted to come back to the US. He got into a private 7th Day Adventist High School in California for his senior year. He hated it. It was nothing like Idaho! During that year he came to our house for Christmas. John had a few missionary discussions during that visit. After HS graduation we helped him get into the English Language Center at BYU. He had wonderful roommates there who finished the missionary discussions with him. In Sept. 2003, John called and asked if he could come to Idaho Falls and have Jaxon baptize him. After ELC, he was accepted to BYU-Idaho where he majored in Computer Information Systems with a minor in Communications. He graduated on April 10th, 2009. His family came from China for the graduation. His childhood friend, Max who now lives in San Franscisco, also came with his girlfriend, Ida. John has adopted us as his American parents. He is a wonderful young man with a bright future ahead of him. We love you John!
