Xiaoyun's Story
Xiaoyun (pronounced Shou-yeen) was born in China with a very severe case of scoliosis. She needed surgery, but being in foster care for many years, there seemed no hope of getting the help she needed. Days away from becoming 14 years old and no longer eligible for adoption, a couple from America officially made her part of their family. Now little Xiaoyun had the chance to begin a journey of healing with a loving family by her side.

Her Passion Discovered
Xiaoyun had to undergo multiple surgeries for her scoliosis. But during her recovery period she wasn't thinking only of herself—she began talking about buying a million chickens for poor children in Asia! She discovered that for a donation of only $11, a family in Asia could be blessed with a pair of chickens. By producing both eggs and offspring, chickens can provide food, income and hope for the future.

The Faith of a Child
With the faith of a child, Xiaoyun has started a campaign to raise enough money to provide one million chickens for the children of Asia. You can help this little girl's dream come true by joining her campaign.
"Thank you for the chickens! I am happy that the kids have food to eat. You all have a good heart! Thank you so much!!! Love, Xiaoyun"

The Danger in Being a Christian: It began as a Jewish sect; fierce persecution only helped it spread Today's reading: Acts 8 Acts 8:1 On that day a great persecution broke out against the church at Jerusalem, and all except the apostles were scattered throughout Judea and Samaria. In some countries, a person who becomes a Christian forfeits a good education and job. And in a few countries, a person who converts risks his or her life. One church historian estimates that more Christians were martyred in the twentieth century than in all preceding centuries put together. Yet, strangely, more often than not, intense persecution of Christians leads to a spurt of growth in the church. An ancient saying expresses this phenomenon: "The blood of martyrs is the seed of the church." The First Big Advance For a while, the new faith enjoyed popular favor. But very soon it involved grave risk. In the book of Acts, the persecution that produced the first Christian martyr, St...

One Day at a Time - May 21

Reflection on Genesis 44:33 Sometimes we get a second chance. When we do, it’s important to seize the opportunity. That’s what Judah did. When his brothers wanted to kill Joseph, Judah didn’t rescue Joseph but instead suggested that they sell him as a slave (see Genesis 37:26–27 ). His second chance came when Benjamin’s life appeared to be in danger. This time Judah put his own life on the line to protect his half brother, Rachel’s other son. Perhaps this commitment was taken into account in the blessings that God inspired Jacob to give his sons; eventually the Messiah came through Judah’s descendants (see Genesis 49:10 ). God often gives us second chances in life. When he does, we need to take advantage of the opportunity and set things right.
