dear s25s, xingni here! =)
hmm as most of you already know, i ll be going on a mission trip to Dali, Yunnan from 1st-8th Dec and as such, I really need your prayers!

Objectives of the trip:
1) Encourage and strengthen believers and missionaries in Dali
2) Provide much needed dental treatments(mainly extractions) for the villagers and high school students
3) Give oral health education to the high school students

-All in all, to reach out to the lost in the minority groups of Dali for God's kingdom, with love and compassion, through our going there and our service

Prayer requests
for the land
1) That God will soften the ground and break down all strongholds that exist, such that the people we meet will be open and interested in the gospel
2) That God will prepare their hearts to receive Him
3) For the local missionaries that God will constantly strengthen them and renew their hearts and minds

for the mission trippers
1) A strengthening of our faith and stretching of our capacity, that we will lean to trust and depend on the Lord
2) Wisdom and guidance from the Holy Spirit to reach out to the people
2) God's protection against spiritual attacks
3) Health and Safety!
4)Humilty and love for one another as we work as a team
5)That God will bless the work of our hands that all dental treatments will go smoothly
6)That we will be able to raise sufficient funds

Mat 28:18-20(NKJV)
"All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to Me. Go therefore and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit, and teaching them to observe all things I have commanded you; and lo, I am with you always, even to the end of the age."

this was taken when i went yunnan in 2005 in a school in a poor village. The kids were really cute and crazy abt photo-taking!

Personal Note
Some personal goals for going on this trip is

to experience God's love for the people in this big world we live in,
to see Him moving in a great and powerful way in the mission field, and
to develop more compassion and burden for the lost. I would also want
to discover more about the purpose for which He has put me in dentistry.

Do pray for me for spiritual growth and fresh encounters with God.

lastly, sorry for the less-than-desirable attempt at making this entry more interesting by playing with colours.. =p

Thank you for joining me on this mission trip by being my prayer warrior! =)
take care till i see you guys again during the subzone camp
