Infant Missionary “Robbed” at Airport
(Update: They have arrived safely in China. They didn’t run out of money before arriving, and they seem to be in good spirits, so thank you for those that prayed for them!)
(This pic is of me teaching J— (on the right) how 2 swim in a Tibetan river during the Summer of 08)
They arrive in Shanghai on Saturday evening at about 10 pm CST and might not even have enough cash to buy train tickets to our city in NW China. He’s gonna call me when he arrives to let me know more details of their situation.
Please pray that they wouldn’t worry too much during their flight (that they would get some needed rest!) and that God would provide for all of their needs both today and in the coming months. They told me that the cash they were carrying was primarily for paying their rent upon their return to China. The $821 they paid is equivalent to nearly 2 months support in China, or 1 year’s rent at their apartment. So they definitely have needs right now.
If you want to help our ministry out with a donation of any kind (we are their primary supporters), please click the “Contact” link to the left of this page.
Also, please be in prayer for them in regards to where they will live for the coming year. We are waiting (and praying for!) approval for them to return to their former home in a stategic Tibetan town that has been closed for foreign residents for quite some time. No news will come until mid-October sometime, but pray for that situation as well!
Thank you & may you walk close to Jesus today!
