We appreciate your prayers and support.

We had an enjoyable and profitable time with the short-term team from North Richmond Alliance Church.  In addition to studying God’s Word with us, they joined us in praying, prayer walking, laughing, and enjoying life.  Their help during the Saturday children’s activity was significant and will be remembered.  It was a special gift from God to have them with us.  We are anticipating that God is going to continue to work and will build His kingdom in Baozhong even beyond what we dreamed and requested.

We will be joining our colleagues from the USA for a special Thanksgiving celebration.  It is good to be reminded to give thanks to God.  What are you thankful for today?

On Friday this week we will begin a series of stories that will lead up to Christmas.  Please pray that each story will build the anticipation and will help those who hear the stores learn to believe in Jesus.

In addition to regular small group meetings and weekly Bible studies, we are preparing for the following December special activities:

• Dec. 5  –  Children’s Christmas Tree Decorating Activity (Including story and other Christmas-related activities)
• Dec 12 –  Children’s Saturday Club Activity (Weekend Happy Camp) including learning a Christmas song
• Dec.19 –  Christmas carolling at the Nursing home and in downtown Baozhong
• Dec.20 –  Christmas Small Group Worship
• Dec.26 –  Children’s Christmas Party

Please pray that Jesus will be exalted and honoured in each of the above mentioned activities.

Giving during October 2015 to the Global Advance Fund was substantially less than we were trusting God for.  This fund provides for Canadian-supported international workers in C&MA ministries around the world.   We have been asked to request you to join us in praying about this need.  If you are able to give an additional gift before year-end to help in the expanding of God’s kingdom around the world, it will be greatly appreciated.
