Dear Internet friends;

We would like to thank you for your prayer support which help us reach Hong Kong and China with the Gospel of the Lord Jesus Christ.

Praise the Lord with us for as you can see we had a wonderful time praying and ministering in Shen Zhen, Peoples Republic of China. Since it is against the law to minister in public in a communist nation, we rented rooms in a more remote hotel and many came to the room for teachings and as you can see in the top left picture, after teaching I was asked to pray for them. These are our Brothers and Sisters in the "underground church". The Lord willing and with your support in prayer and offerings we can reach the lost souls in China. Pastor Amos our Chinese pastor will go in each week to minister. He will set up more meetings so I can teach and minister to these hungry souls, in the months ahead.

Here you can see the conference room meetings in which hundreds came to hear the word and ask for prayer. We wish to thank you for your prayers, the Police did not stop the meetings, as we were inside a back hall. If they came, there was another exit the so mainland people could escaped. Thank God that was not necessary. Some ministers that I know have been arrested and put in 'hotel jails" for weeks, and the local folks, jailed for years, for going to a Christian service that is not approved by the communist. The cost of such meetings and travel by train and bus etc., does dig into the pockets, so any help you feel God would have you send, please do. I am sure the Lord will bless those that help in this labor to win the souls in China to Christ. I will share more pictures in our next letter.
