Qun (Chin) was only a few days old when the person she should have trusted most in the world left her (with a broken arm) to be picked up by strangers and handed to the police. I'm so grateful that the police know that Christian Action is always willing to love and care for any child who needs a home.

A simple act of kindness can make a world of difference in the life of someone who needs encouragement - and every one of us is able to perform many simple acts of kindness.

Last week was one of really special celebrations! Yes, the Lunar New Year is the most important holiday in China, and I spent it with my friends and loved ones, including a special Malaysian meal at my home with the Christian Action team from China. But that's not the only special celebration I want to tell you about - this one is a miracle!
It's a miracle that eight year old Ji spent the holidays with 'family'. Born with congenital heart disease, he came to live with us at Xining Children's home when he was a tiny baby, struggling to survive. His condition was so serious, there were no doctors in Qinghai knowledgeable enough to treat him...

Exactly three months ago, I told you we'd been asked by a Buddhist organisation to help Zhuo Ma, an eighteen-year-old Tibetan girl who was not in one of the orphanages co-managed by Christian Action. I asked you to pray for this very sick girl from Yushu county, who had been given, at the age of eight, to be the sole carer of an old and poverty-stricken herdsman and his daughter, both with mental disabilities.

I've written to you before about the sadness my staff and I feel when one of our children leaves this earth. But there's another dimension to this loss which we don't always expect to find in a home where many disabled children are barely able to communicate. It reminds me of how little we may know about what's going on in the minds of children such as this.
