These ladies were selected by our hostess, "Louisa" because they want to share their faith with their husbands and asked for our help. They have all left successful careers in business, education and journalism to be home with children - a rare thing in China! They have such tender hearts and wanted in every way to make Hope, Jenn and I comfortable and welcome. They even worked together to make a wonderful lunch for us and to top it off had ordered dessert from a German Bakery to be served with lattes made from a new espresso machine!
Louisa told me more than once, "We don't want to just benefit and receive from you, we want to help and partner with you!"
Lana, the woman in the black and red sweater, told me with tears that she had been praying for a special gift and a way to reach a friend who is dying of cancer. She was so happy to have a bracelet and a simple gift with which to share the GIFT!
