A New Year Begins!

Well the first group is back from China and another leaves in a couple of weeks!  We will be gathering up more to send with that group when we get together this Thursday. It is such a blessing to share with each other the glimpses we get of God's weaving all our stories together in His way!

From Mary...

This week we returned from another awesome mission to Beijing.  Your scarves were a wonderful blessing to all the women who received them.  There are only photos of three happy winners (pictures attached) because our team of six was split in two, each going to separate venues.  At the meetings I attended, after the women chose one of your beautiful shawls, I would tell them it was hand knit by their sisters in the U.S.  This always produced many oohs and ahhs from the group.   Then, after the women were told that you would pray for them when you received their photo, the oohs and ahhs grew louder.  It was always the same joyful excited response. 

 

 May you all be richly blessed for your service to our Lord and the dear women in China.  They are very touched, and so am I, that you serve God in this generous, personal, and loving manner.

With love and affection,

Mary


Soooo thankful for the  faithful willingness to go and to teach others! It inspires us to keep going round those looms!    Thank you for the pictures, too! That is always an encouragement for us to see and to share with others what God is doing.
 
AND, please continue to pray for Peggy's team! They are going in a couple of weeks. We pray and trust in God's timing for all things, for His provision of planning and funds and thank Him in advance for the fruits of the work to be done. If you would like to follow as they travel and post, you can check out the link on the side of this page for Women Connect in China.
What a blessing to pray for all of our sisters served and serving!
