Recently we had a Chinese couple in our home, who reside in
Canada, and run their own successful restaurant. They escaped from China over thirteen years
ago through Burma walking for 24 hours through the jungle to Burma and then to Thailand. The UN considered them refugees and they were
able to immigrate to Canada. They are now
Canadian citizens, and he running for town council in their small town.
They came to faith in Christ through difficulties, mainly
watching their relatives suffer for Christ under the Communist regime.
They interviewed Dad (Walter) Jespersen concerning his
ministry and life in China and where Margaret was raised until she was 6.
They are presently involved with the underground church and
various ministries that help the poor church and its physical and spiritual
needs.
Suffering Leads to Christ.
It is amazing as we heard their testimony how much the grace
of God led them to the Savior by watching the suffering of others and also
their own suffering. It was the fear of
the jungle that caused the young man to look to God and to call out Him and His
mercy.
Later, he came to faith in Christ while suffering in
Thailand.
