Centurion Project Reaches China
A Report by Gary and Danita Jackson
The Centurion Project is finally up and running again in Beijing!
The three teachers from Hart and Amarillo, TX are doing a great job with the almost 35 readers and some of their students are showing a great deal of interest. Some plan to be with us for the Sunday assembly. Our problem is that we need teachers to continue where they will leave off next week. Our next group is not scheduled to arrive until the very end of May. Can you see yourself teaching these eager students? Well, if you can't come, you can pray and we need that, too!
It is hard to put into words what has transpired in the last two weeks. Simply put, God has opened a door for his message in the hearts of the restaurant workers where we have doing the LST Centurion Project Reading. The manager and two of the female workers signed up immediately to read. Now there are five females and two males reading. When we first started reading here last week, there was an altar and image of Guan Yu, a Chinese mythological figure which is very prominent in Chinese businesses. With the encouragement of a Korean believer who came into the restaurant, it has now been removed and as you can see a cross is hanging on the wall (right top). This morning three of us (Danita, Gary, and
Sissie) went and had a Bible Study with the manager and all of the workers (11 total). After the study this morning about the One True God, four of the girls expressed their faith in God. The plan right now is to make this a weekly study. Please pray for this amazing opportunity.
Also, please pray for their business. They have been so good to us but we are afraid that they will go out of business if they don't start getting more customers soon.
