A WONDERFUL UPDATE FROM OUR APRIL TRIP!

Xiaoxia is the precious lady who was moved to weep upon receiving a shawl and knowing her American sisters would pray for her. Xiaoxia had been told by her doctor that she should terminate her pregnancy because her baby didn't seem to be growing well. She received such courage to carry the baby afterward and will deliver a healthy baby next month! Xiaoxia wanted us to know this and to express her gratitude! Let's continue to pray for a safe delivery and health for baby and mother.

Amen? Amen!

FIRST DAYS IN BEIJING IN JUNE 2013: SHOPPING, TEAM DINNER AND LEADERS TRAINING

Yinyan, Stephanie, Peggy, Jutta & Mandy shopping for great jewelry with Stephanie who makes our Story Jewelry. We are a good team already - getting through jet-lag and shopping with smiles! 

 Dinner at Daiali - our new favorite place for Peking Duck with Mandy &Justin the night before they return to the states, and our staff:

 First training this afternoon at the home of Grace & Rebecca with our leaders: Mawer, Joy, Yinyan, Kanghua, Jufang, Wangjin, Grace, Rebecca & Jasmin. So incredibly grateful for these godly and dedicated leaders.

 Yinyan begins teaching about a leader's quiet time, listening to their stories and interacting with each one as they share a passage in Mark. Wonderful time for them to listen in Chinese with no translator!

Yinyan leads in prayer - her humble spirit evident in every phrase and attitude. They loved it all!
