It was like boxing up a rainbow to send with them :)
Please keep them all in your prayers, as we know that God has lots of things for them to do.
Here are a few things Peggy has asked prayer for...
- Pray for preparation, visas, health, spiritual protection.
- Safety in flight & rest.
- Safe arrival and recovery of strength for ministry.
- Saturday training.
- Weekly teachings
- Second Womens' Retreat!
- Weekly training.
- departure – safety.
Everyone is really excited about the Women's Retreat. This will be the second year for this!
We were also able to send more shawls/hats this time, too! Because of the retreat, we included some fun ones for the kids (thank you, Ann!!!),
several hats of different sizes and colors, and a few precious baby hats that were given to the KitWits to send "wherever"! :)

Here, our newest KnitWits are modeling hats before we boxed them up for China!
Here they are with their first two hats, just after they took them off them loom! After a quick trip home to show dad what they'd made, they brought them back so they could be sent with the other hats to China.
It is a real blessing to see God touching these little hearts for HIS purpose and instilling in them a real desire to serve and help others.

Dear KnitWits,
ReplyDeleteI am home and with an over-flowing heart and catch-up schedule too! :) I must write to you to share this briefly: Jufang (one of our key leaders in China) hosted our last training on Monday the 12th before leaving on the 13th of March. She and her ladies had made beaded gifts for the KnitWits - they asked me to mail to you all as an expression of their gratitude for you. They would like you to take pictures with the gifts so they can pray for you!
This is a different group than the one (Mawei's) who asked for your photo while I was in China.
These women are so touched by your labors of love and prayer for them and want to give back to you in Jesus' name! So, look for something in the mail late next week...
All my love to you,
Peggy
