Imagine packing up your life and moving to a new island to keep a centuries-old tradition alive! 😮 That's exactly what Wang Shu-hua and her husband, Jao Jui-ho, a couple from Taiwan, did when they settled on Meizhou Island in southern China.
For the past three years, Wang and Jao have been dedicated volunteers at the temple of Mazu, China's beloved sea goddess. 🌊 They are passionate about preserving her cultural legacy, a tradition cherished by people on both sides of the Taiwan Strait.
Their journey isn't just about spiritual devotion; it's about building bridges and fostering understanding across the Taiwan Strait. By immersing themselves in the local community, they've found a new home and a purpose that resonates deeply with their roots.
Wang and Jao's story is a heartwarming example of how shared traditions can bring people together, transcending boundaries and nurturing mutual respect. ✨
