Dear Friends
Over the past week I've spent extra time in the prisons giving out the newly published Simple Bible: Gospels (Chinese edition)
For a while I found it hard to wish the men "Merry Christmas"....not so merry behind bars....so I started saying "Christmas peace" as I shook their hands
But every one of them...hundreds of them...all replied "Merry Christmas"!
For the inmates Christmas is a time of hope, a time of joy....despite being behind bars
So too for people in grieving/unhappy/difficult situations: Christmas is a time of hope and peace
Thank
God for Christmas!

On
this 22nd of the month, Jesus
please bless the
people of Zhejiang
(Please join me in praying for one
part of China each day of the month)
My Reading-Reflection-Prayer
menu for today.
Let's use this menu to prepare for Christmas,
just as Mary prepared for the first Christmas so long ago
Thank you for a prayer
God bless!
