MINISTRY / Bible institute restart

"Thank God for his grace!"

A sign of improvement

That's the way the message began.

Recently, I wrote to one of our friends in China about restarting our online courses with her house church. Because of the restrictions China has imposed on online communication about religion, we have been very careful in our contacts with Chinese friends. We do not want to expose them to government harassment. That means we have held off offering our classes to a number of our students.

But now seemed to be a good time to reach out to this group of believers.

Classes are restarting

The translation of the rest of her message is a bit wooden because it was done by an online translator, but the excitement still comes through.

"My friends are very willing to continue to participate in online courses. Pray for God's mercy, care, and protection. Thank you."

Five months after China implemented stricter internet restrictions, it seems our Chinese friends are more willing to join our classes again. That's wonderful news -- and an answer to prayers.

What you can do: Thank God that we can provide our courses to this group. Ask him to open our courses to more groups.
