China
We at Bridgewater are excited to be partnering up with a young missionary family & are sending 5 members from our church over to China for 16 days in China's early spring. God has been sparking amazing revivals in China and we are believing that more people will come to faith as a result of this trip and that people will be exposed to the truth and light of Christ.
Please be praying for the safety of our team, especially that language and cultural barriers would be broken so that the freedom of Christ and eternal life will be embraced and received by many.
For many years the true gospel has been withheld from the Chinese people due to the rise of communism. For this reason, we must still remain sensitive to the information regarding details of this trip. However, spiritual darkness is about to be broken, and lives will be restored and renewed! Through man this is impossible...But through God all things are possible!!
The trip will begin as the team leaves for China on Friday the 2nd of September and will be returning on the 18th. After arriving in Beijing, the team will be traveling north to the more remote areas of China, such as Qiqihar (chi-chi-har), to reach people that have never heard the gospel.
We ask you to keep this team in your prays as it is illegal to preach the Good News in a communist country, and they could face potential danger.
Updates
The team has arrived safely in Qiqihar and worshipped together with a few local house church leaders. Thank you for your prayers as God has opened up doors of opportunity that we would rarely see back home.
