Yesterday was a crushing hard day. But at the end we closed in prayer, lifting our needs and concerns to God.
A man posing as a policeman absolutely terrified Ann by telling her lies and making her think they were going to arrest her. After a few hours he got her banking info under the guise of needing to freeze her accounts. He then went into her account and took out loans (in China there is a way to do an instant loan apparently) and took all their money too. We went to the police for help.
You know it’s interesting. Spiritually speaking... as this weekend a young person asked to go to church for the first time, after learning more about God. I don’t think the devil liked that! And then this cruel mean theft.
Anyways, I am posting the PayPal link if anyone would like to give some immediate help -as all money is gone. The police say it would take months probably to get the money back and only 1% of people actually get it back.

Please pray for them.
Update: SADLY the police were very cold and indifferent today when Ann was taken to the Fraud department to give more information. She basically in tears said "We were just a number to them!We are a good family, we try to bless everyone in our path, we have 2 babies and none of them understand how much this hurts our family! "
My heart aches for her. She is the 1st Christian in her family, and her family is being cruel. Saying many divorces happen here so she should take it if her husband is angry! She told them he was not angry at her! Infact he was comforting her. They were shocked. They told her she is stupid, a bad wife, a bad mom, and so much more!
May her heart find healing in Jesus and the love from our son, and our family! I am also praying God will miraculously return the money to them through believers around the world! IT would speak so much more! It would speak of God's understanding, love, and the care of HIS children around the world! May God get GLORY!
PLEASE PRAY!
Jesus did not die for me so I can be saved and live the rest of my life a regular life awaiting heaven. Someone said once: "I don't want to die of rust".
I want to be an overcomer... despite my character, despite my weaknesses, despite my disbelief.
My prayer for today? "Holy Spirit! Kick my butt when I'm stalling" 🤩
“When it comes time to die, be not like those whose hearts are filled with the fear of death, so when their time comes they weep and pray for a little more time to live their lives over again in a different way. Sing your death song, and die like a hero going home.” – Chief Aupumut in 1725, Mohican.
Canadian Pastor joins us for our next intense podcast.
This is normal life for us in China, but perhaps it's time for western Christians to have this conversation?

@bethany I believe so too. It kind of felt ordained from the beginning, but I didnt know if that was REALLY ordination or excitement. To be completely honest with you, in the beginning stages I kind of felt "THIS IS NEVER GOING TO HAPPEN." I really felt that her and I didn't click. She was very guarded and I was a stranger. She also has so many people wanting to write her story and I felt insecure with her asking me. But I dared myself to take each step with a feeling in the back of my mind that it was going to stop for one reason or another. Do you know we JUST signed the contract yesterday? that is how much doubt I had that we would actually do this. We have been working on this for a couple of months, but it was only made official yesterday and now it feels more real than ever. So many things have been clicking into place in the last week that has made me also say "this is ordained by God."
Dear DingDash family, please keep us in your prayers today. I am here in the US writing Meriam Ibrahim's story. Not an easy story. Yesterday was filled with emotion and tears as Meriam talked about being born in a refugee camp, her father brutally murdering her aunt for an honor killing, her mother being tied up for two days and raped, and her running away and hiding to escape circumcision - only to be forcefully dragged back to the village and the Muslim elders publicly witnessing her genital mutilation - and this was all before she was even 7 years old!
We can use all the prayers we can get for this project.
Hi guys, anyone has the interpretation gift? If soo you can have a look on this Chinese-Polish video 😉

*UPDATE * On my daughter, Lisa, and baby.
Miracles all around!! Lisa had a terrible Accreta case, she lost 5 liters of blood during surgery! She has amazed the doctor and nurses by healing so quickly. The nurse said most ppl with cases like Lisa are in bed for 2 weeks. Lisa was out of the hospital in 5 days. Two weeks later and she is doing amazing!!
Baby, Kynlee, has also been hitting each goal set for her. Today her feeding tube was taken out. She recovers quickly when her oxygen levels dip AND... She may be discharged in a day or two!!
I came home yesterday. It was a stressful time but also a time of many blessings caring for my other two granddaughters.
Thank you all for praying! My love to all of you!
I still haven't been able to see the baby😢 ...but soon🙏
This is sooo me when Jesus helps me out of a ditch.

Not all ministers need a stage.
Not all preachers need a microphone.
Not all ministries need neon lights.
Missionaries in closed countries are going back to the basics and using the same methods as the 1st century church - using simple business opportunities to spread the Gospel.
That's why we are hosting a Christian business forum and are inviting you to come and meet our Chinese, Asian, Middle Eastern, and African partners that currently use business in closed countries to support the spread of the Gospel and how we can partner together.
