I made my first trip from the United States across the Pacific to Asia in 1995. I was part of a Global Expeditions short term missions trip with Teen Mania Ministries.

“The end is near. It’s time to be risky. It’s time to take chances.” Our Within Reach Global missionary just texted me today. She has been living in the urban jungle of Southwest China.

“They beat him up! They kicked him,” they cried. We held each others’ shoulders in sadness. “They beat up our beloved brother!” Our van bumped along the winding dirt paths leading up to an unreached people group that we have been targeting for almost 10 years.

Hongyan won’t be joining us in remembering Jesus this Easter. Disclaimer: This does not negate anything that Jesus Christ has done. She’s simply not able to join us in celebration this year.
