Dear Friends

Happy Feast of the Visitation!

A couple of days ago I wrote about receiving 3,000 copies of Chinese Old Testament (Simple Bible)
Books arrived Monday morning.

That afternoon, 30 of them were given out at Lai Chi Kok Detention Centre.
The next day, Tuesday, 40 were given out at LCK.
Yesterday, Wednesday, 90 of them were taken to Hei Ling Chau Island to section 18B

At this rate, a second printing is likely to be needed before the end of the year!
A happy problem!

A number of inmates at LCK who used the English edition of the Simple Bible: Old Testament
said it was like a novel....they couldn't put it down.
One man said he read the whole book in a few days!

DG!

This week's smile 

God bless all on my sick list, in HK, Australia, China and other places,
- especially dear friends battling cancer.....at top of list: my dear sister-in-law Yvonne (Gold Coast, Australia)

On this 31st of the month,
Jesus please bless the people of Tianjin
(Please join me in praying for one part of China each day of the month)

My  Bible Plan for today = readings for Feast of the Visitation. 
May Mary's example in going to visit her cousin Elizabeth  encourage us to do a little bit more for other people

Thank you for a prayer

God bless!
