MAWEI, THE FAITHFUL LEADER AND HER SISTER'S GROUP

MaWei is a faithful sister who leads multiple groups in Bible study.  Her faithfulness is evident every time I have seen her.  They meet in XiaoLi's home and this time there were about 14 women and also a husband of one of the women.  It is quite common when we gather with women that a man is also present - not minding if the content is designed with women in mind:  Harriet spoke on "Mary's Extravagant Love", and I taught on "Beauty in God's Eyes".  In this video, the women are reading Scripture together; in China, the believers do this most often and read with great devotion.  Sometimes the men read a verse and then women and so on... 


It is never easy to leave these groups, they just want you to stay forever!  Here we are at a restaurant where we were treated to lunch after the study.

Anna is from western China and is Muslim; also a belly dancer - here she poses showing the bracelet I had given her!  Anna is not yet a believer but said to us, "I feel peace and God's love when I am with you".  Pray for her please...
