Friday, May 3rd, 2013 by Amilah

As you guys all know, a couple weeks ago we had an earthquake. A lot of damage was experienced in a city 70 miles from here. Approximately 200 people died and thousands were injured. Here in our city, there was no substantial damage. Yet, a lot of fear filled the hearts of the residents and [...]

Earlier this morning, there was a 6.9 earthquake about 70 miles from our city here. The entire team is safe!!! The buildings were shaking, it was intense, but here in our city, everything is fine.

Kindergarten Update

Wednesday, April 10th, 2013 by Amilah

Since my last update, many have asked how sharing at the kindergarten went. IT WAS AMAZING!!! We played guitar, sang songs, and shared the Easter story. Before sharing the story, I asked the kids if any of them have ever heard of Jesus before. Out of approximately 80 students, not one of them lifted their [...]

Awesome Opportunity for Easter

Wednesday, March 27th, 2013 by Amilah

Tomorrow, my two American friends and I have an incredible opportunity to teach a kindergarten class. Now, this class is a bit larger than one you would see in America. Instead of 15-20 students in one class, we’ll have……100!!!!!! We have been given permission by the teacher to PRAY over the students!!!! What?!?!?! This is [...]

One Hundred Plus!

Last semester, in my city alone, we had the opportunity to share the complete gospel with over 500 college students! 500 students!!!! Of these students, approximately 100 have given their lives to Christ!!!!! As an act of obedience, many were baptized and the majority have been plugged into small group studies where they have been [...]

Update

Wednesday, January 9th, 2013 by Amilah

It amazes me how, in a country that is ridiculously huge, God can connect us with friends of friends of friends from thousands of miles away. For example: A month or so ago I got a text message from an American worker that I’ve never met. He lives in the southeast part of the country, [...]

Sharing His Love

Saturday, December 8th, 2012 by Amilah

A couple weeks ago, the guys were on the basketball courts with their Asian friend Patrick, a believer who joined the family two months ago or so. Before starting a game, they would normally warm up by shooting jumps shots or jogging around the court. This time, however, they arrived with a passion to do [...]

For His Glory

Sunday, November 18th, 2012 by Amilah

I was able to spend the last four days in G-Town, where I first lived in China back in 2009! There, I spent my time connecting with the team and “doing life” alongside them. Most of my time was spent with the first year workers… Sharing stories with them, encouraging them, and giving them creative [...]

Update!

Monday, October 29th, 2012 by Amilah

I love the work that God is doing in this beautiful city! In the past 2 months, we have seen over 50 Asian students accept Christ! In this city alone! With our three cities combined…..I don’t even know! In the past years, we have invested so much into this nation through prayer, learning the language, [...]

Competent and Confident

Sunday, September 23rd, 2012 by Amilah

On Friday night, three of us American girls were meeting together with 2 Asian believers. One who recently accepted (in the last week or so), and another who has been a believer for a couple years. The goal of our meeting was to practice sharing the gospel, so that they would feel competent and confident [...]
