Life Renewed
“After I had believed in the Lord, my life did not change. I had put in a lot of efforts to make money. But it was always disappointing and my life was a mess. Finally, I lost everything in a business venture and became ill. Lying in my bed, I wondered again why I had tormented myself and my family so much. After that, I have adjusted myself and decided to seek Jesus. I am resolved to follow the Lord. My spiritual life is growing in my church gradually. The pastor has introduced me to a missionary team. I have truly established my relationship with God and become a missionary team leader through continuous learning and training. I thank God for His grace which has allowed me to encounter Him.”
(Sister Liang)
- The Lord has transformed Sister Liang, allowing her to see the true meaning of life. May the Lord continue to use Sister Liang so that she can become a useful vessel and live a life according to the Lord’s will.
Unfinished Elevator Installation
Installation of elevators in old buildings can easily cost hundreds of thousands, or even millions of dollars (RMB). A reporter has discovered that elevator installation projects have been left unfinished in some small communities and that some projects have been delayed for over two years. Some residents of small communities have endured a seven-year waiting period but their hope for elevator installation still cannot come true. Some property owners have attempted to pursue the elevator company through the court. But their cases cannot be filed for investigation ultimately because filing of these cases requires unanimous consent from all owners who need to submit litigation materials to the court jointly. So the threshold is high.

- Pray that the relevant departments can establish a monitoring platform for projects of the property with fragmented ownership. Also pray that the Lord will touch property owners so that they will unite in their fight for the compensation they deserve.
Rooting and Growing
“I am a Christian of the third generation. When I was little, my mother listened to Radio Liangyou and I followed suit. Although I did not understand, I knew that it was a Christian radio station. Growing up in church, I gradually understand the gospel to a certain extent. After I had entered middle school, I was completely captured by God. Later, I started my career and my relationship with Christ became alienated. But when I heard hymns, I felt an inexplicable sense of familiarity. I am grateful to the Lord Jesus for not abandoning me. Then I have realized how much I owe Him. I am resolved to live for the sake of the Lord, When I have listened to your programs, I am thankful very much.”
(Brother Su)
- Although Brother Su has experienced some ups and downs, the Lord has been guiding him. Now, he is determined to live for the sake of the Lord. Pray that he can take root in his faith and bear more fruit.
Forced To Be Labor
A reporter has conducted undercover investigations into brick factories in Hunan Province. It is discovered that mentally retarded people are forced to work as labor and that their wages are embezzled by the foremen. It is found that there are mentally retarded people working as labor in at least 50 brick factories over the past decade. Nearly 400 people have been forced to become labor. They are either lured or purchased on streets and they become “tools” for making profits. Operators of many brick factories have outsourced the work due to the difficulties of recruiting workers. They believe that after the work has been outsourced, their brick factories will not be involved in the cases.

Pray that relevant departments will strengthen inspections of closed production facilities to promptly curb the situation of forced labor. Also pray that the shelter mechanism in the society will be improved so as to help people with disabilities to find shelter and contribute to the society.
Gospel Broadcasting
- Theology Learning: The four programs of Liangyou Theological Seminary (Navigation & Lay Training I, II & III) are designed according to varying levels and learning goals to provide believers with well-rounded training. We pray that these courses will continue to be renewed and developed in step with the times, and that believers will remain steadfast in completing each stage of their equipping.
- Staff Adaptation: In recent months, several colleagues have either joined the ministry or taken on new roles. Pray that the Lord will help them quickly adapt, integrate into the team, and make full use of their gifts in response to His calling. Please also remember the ongoing need for additional production staff, asking God to provide suitable workers for the gospel broadcasting ministry.
