Lost Old Woman Escorted by Church Leader in Zhejiang

“小同志，这里是什么地方？葭沚某养老院也找不到了？”中国东南沿海的浙江省的一教会的负责人开车护送老人回到养老院,据台州市椒江堂。

2022年8月4日上午9时许，正在云西公园和谐园的路口，有位八十多岁的老太太在独自徘徊，台州椒江堂的负责人孔歌和一心图跑上前询问情况。可是老人神情恍惚、就把她牵到教堂阴凉通风处坐下，询问了很久，孔弟兄了解到她现住葭沚街道某养老院。

因天气炎热，好长时间打不到“的士”，孔弟兄就亲自驾车护送洪太太回养老院，在车上多次嘱咐老人如今疫情形势严峻，不要随意外出走动，并要多和子女沟通相处，不要独自在外走。

之后，孔弟兄将老人安全送到葭沚某养老院负责人手中。

“Excuse me, young man, may I ask you what place this is? I can’t find the nursing home in Jialing Street.” A head of a church in Zhejiang on the southeast coast of China drove an elderly back to a nursing home.

An 80-year-old woman was wandering alone on August 4in Yunxi Park where Jiaojiang Church is located. Kong Ge, the head of the church in Taizhou, ran forward with another believer to ask her about the situation, taking her in a trance to the cool and ventilated area of the church to sit down. After asking for a long time, Kong learned that she was living in a nursing home in Jiazhi Street.

As they couldn’t get a taxi for a long time due to the hot weather, Kong drove the woman, Mrs. Hong, back to the nursing home by himself. In the car, he told her not to go out and walk at will under the COVID-19 pandemic, and that she should communicate with her children more and not  walk alone outside.

After that, the old woman was delivered to the person in charge of the nursing home.
