Title: Unexpectedness in China

date: August 2nd

This Sunday morning I was eagerly awaiting the arrival of Grace and David, little did I know what the Lord had in store for me before they came.

We (the Christians CCVs at our school) decided to go to church and take some of our students with us. When we arrived at the church we found that their service wasn't until later, but when some people saw us, they called all their members. But their pastor wouldn't arrive until later, but they still wanted to have service. Before singing songs began, they asked me to give a message. I had no idea what was going on, and before I had a chance to respond they started singing.

Not really understanding their songs I walked outside to pray about what I was about to preach about. Having a crowd of old Christians, some working aged ones, and a handful of non Christians which we brought with us. I was debating between unity and Love. After praying hard for the next couple minutes, I felt the Lord tugging at my heart to talk about the latter.

Miraculously, (more specifically through God's grace) I gave a 30 minute message (that's with translations) about Love and it was pretty good.

God is doing so much in this place, please continue to pray for me!

Title: Praise the Lord!

August 6

A good friend of mine from last year who helped me spread the Gospel last year, arrived today, his name is Paul. I was so happy to hear of his arrival (since he came just for me!) that in the middle of class I just froze and was speechless for a minute. Anyway, that is not the point of this blog.

The point is, Paul came just in time to help me talk about the Bible and the four spiritual laws to my student. This student's name is David, he is in highschool and really is a good kid. He takes me around a lot and in the last two weeks I was able to talk to him a lot about God. But tonight was especially particular. At the end of the four spiritual laws comes the sinner's prayer. Not being sure if he was ready I told him that he had time and that there was still a week left before I left, but he replied with these exact words "wo xin li xian zai hen gao xin" (my heart is very happy right now). And so he prayed the sinner's prayer.

Continue to pray for us please we really need it!

Title: Pu Weng

Date: August 7

I'll keep this one short and simple. Pu Weng is the name of the school that I went to last year. I am also going to visit the school tomorrow. I'm particularly going to see a couple of students that were saved last year. Pray for them, their names are Cloud and Cindy.

The day after (Sunday) I'm going to see Catherine, Shannie, and Danny at their school. Our schools are going to meet up and also have a church service so pray for that!

Here's the itinerary for the church service:

Welcome: Cat

Worship: YY

Word:

Testimony: Grace

Message: Paul and YY

Worship (after message): Danny

Works: Led by Grace

Still a bit not set, but pray for things to go well, a lot of people that we're inviting have ready hearts and I think so much can be done!

God Bless and Love from China,

YY
