Quote of the week

"Rome was not built in a day, nor will the work of building up a strong, well-instructed body of Lisu Christians in the Tengyueh district be the work of a day either … God has brought me to the point of being willing for it to be in His time as well as in His way. I am willing … not to see the fullness of blessing in my lifetime." – James O. Fraser

I talked to a young man recently who had been into the hill regions of China recently. He mentioned that he had held in his hands the song books that the Lisu people were using. Written in those song books was the name "James Fraser." These were the songs that Mr. Fraser had translated for the Lisu people to sing. Today almost a century later, they still use those books.

It is amazing to think that the efforts of Christian missionaries long ago still have an impact today.
