The Hilliards moved to Hong Kong in 2001 from Memphis, Tennessee. Brett serves as the lead pastor at Island Evangelical Community Church, and Shannon is a nurse at Hong Kong International School. They have 4 kids: Abby (13), Hudson (12), Mary Grace (9), and Zane (6).

JieJie and Didi (big sis and lil bro)


Mary Grace just handed me a picture she had drawn of two flags: USA and China. She had printed each of the family member's
names on their
respective flag.

She and Zane have formed an alliance, it seems.


Zane's English has not improved at all, but all of our Chinese certainly has. MG now can say: "I don't understand", "Good night", "Are you hungry?", "That's not okay", and "Wait a minute".

Saturday morn we fly to Guangzhou for the final stage. Back to Hong Kong on Tuesday. We're really missing our other kiddos, Abby and Hudson, and can't wait to get the entire family together.

Brett & Shannon,

My computer has been unhooked so I just got to look at the the stories and pictures today. What an amazing journey!! Zane is sooo cute and sooo perfect for your family. We have all been praying for him, you, and Abby & Hudson back home. It is so exciting to show my kids how God has worked and has already made this transition so smooth. Benton cannot wait to meet Zane. He keeps calling your family the Shannons (sorry Brett :)) We love you guys. Robin for the Parrish family
