Wang Yi's Pre-Arrest Family Newsletter (The Prison Pulpit #7)

Welcome to this bonus episode of China Compass, the 7th in a weekly series called “The Prison Pulpit”. I'm your China travel guide, Missionary Ben. Follow me on X (@chinaadventures) where I share a new Chinese city to pray for daily. You can learn more about that at PrayforChina.us.  You can also check out my Substack (ChinaCall.substack.com) where I post a variety of articles about China and missions, and missions in China. I will probably even post the full letter that I will be reading from today. But my current latest post is entitled, Cherokee Theology: The Last Words of Dewey Sanders, is in honor of one of my favorite men and mentors who passed away six years ago this week: https://chinacall.substack.com/p/cherokee-theology Today we are looking at a family letter written by Wang Yi and his wife, Jiang Rong, twelve days before their arrest on December 9, 2018. It is their annual letter written to their congregation. My hope is that you can get a glimpse into the relative normalcy of their lives, and also be encouraged to pray for Wang Yi’s wife and children who face life circumstances not unfamiliar to most of us, albeit without their faithful pastor father in the home.  https://chinacall.substack.com/p/wang-yi-family-newsletter-11-27-2018
