Wendy My name is Wendy Zhang ( TingTing Zhang - Chinese name). I was born in the middle east of China. And grown up there, too. I like sci- ence and math. So even I was taught in Evolutionism, I am very curi- ous why so many scientists believe in God. I studied Polymer Chem- istry in college. In 2010, I got to study Bible with other friends in an GRAHAM NUNN Christian’s house because of interest. After 3 times Bible studying, I EVANGELIST decided to become a Christian. The host and all other Christians ‘ joy DIOCESE and peace in their lives caught my eyes. That time I didn’t care much Spring Newsletter 2020 about if Jesus is God’s son or not. I could pretend God is real in thought. That’s not a big thing for me. I just want to have the same joy and peace they have. From then on, I kept studying Bible and followed Christian’s life style. In the last 10 years, my life was up and down many times. I got to learn more about God. His existence doesn’t rely on my thought. It’s not only thought and knowledge. He brought down peace and joy in my heart every time I pray to HIM. HE is God and HE died for me. When I felt deep down, always his love brought me back. He is faithful. He cares for me and everyone in the world. After college, I worked in a chemical company for 2.5 years. Then I came to an international school YHIS where I have worked for 3.5 years. The school is a spiritual nutritious place for me. I really appreciate everyone who has prayed for me for along time. It’s amazing that it worked out finally. And I am sure the wait- ing time is good for me. It’s such a blessing that I could come to UK before Christmas and get to celebrate Jesus’ birth with you. Prayer Please pray for all the projects that we are involved with, for safety in travels, for new ideas in reaching out to people. We give grateful thanks to God for all those who pray for me and who fund this work. Pray for me as I continue working for the gospel, Contact Captain Graham Nunn CA 16 Greenside Maidstone, ME15 7SA 0773 6303884 [email protected]
