A Girls' Orphanage in North China
By Mr. EMIL JOHNSON, Saratsi, Shansi YOU may have read in the papers that no rain
has fallen in some parts of China this summer,
and that famine already threatens millions in
these stricken parts. It has rained very little even
in our district, but owing to the ground being moist
in the spring and having occasional sprinklings
since, many of the growing crops were kept alive
and yielded a little harvest. Much grain, however,
was transported to the famine-stricken parts, and
this caused an enormous rise in the grain prices. In
August a most blessed rain fell. By a marvellous provision of God the Orphanage
farm was irrigated by water from the Yellow River
just when the growing grain was in special need.
This was made possible through the rise of the
water in the river. The water has not been so high
for many years, and it stayed at this height only a few days. Mr. Svensson and Deacon Liu worked
very hard with the irrigation from Monday till Thursday, almost night and day. When they had
nearly finished, the water sank and the irrigation
opportunity ended. We perceive herein the governing hand of God and His loving provision for our hundreds of children in this time of dearth.
In July the children had an excursion to the foot
of the Tatsing mountain, five miles away. There in a beautiful village embedded among orchards and
shade trees many children had been nursed as
babies. These had now an opportunity to see their nurses again—and, more glorious still, the apricot season had just commenced! A long row of carts
filled with radiant children and a long procession of
girls on foot made toward that lovely place, everyone expecting a day of thrilling experience, full of
strolling and playing and out-of-door delights. But.
unfortunately, just as they arrived it began to rain
!
And it continued the whole day—the only rainy day
during the warmer months. The return home had
to take place in rain and mud. Thus ended the day
which commenced with such unusual joy and
expectancy. So it is with many of the pleasures in
this world ; they mostly end with disappointment
a lesson the girls could learn from the experiences
of this picnic day.
Another day of much excitement and joy in July
was the wedding day of the orphans' elder "sister,"
Rose. She was married to the missionaries' cook, a
10 CHINA'S MILLIONSgood Christian man, and thus our Rose—once
turned out of a home—has become the possessor of a neat little home of her own. It was a day full of
joy. The young bride will continue to take a class
in the school and teach her little "sisters."
A few very helpful days the elder girls spent at
the feet of Mrs. Howard Taylor in June. Her loving message touched many hearts and forty girls
gave in their names indicating that they had given
their hearts to the Lord. Later followed a day of
spiritual joy and delight. Ten of the girls were then
baptised and received into the church.
The Lord has truly proved Himself to be "the
glory of our strength" in these months of much
work. It is a wonder that we have been able to
meet the very great expenses. After all, it is the
Lord who has met them. Our great number of
friends have truly responded in a remarkable way to
His promptings in behalf of our needs. Even Chinese
girls in the south of the province have sent their
precious little gifts quite frequently.
Our own little girls themselves so much want to
have something set apart for the work of the Lord!
The Christians here made a special effort the Sunday before last to raise funds for a new church and
this inspired our little girls, too. The day after, a number of the smaller ones i from four up) gave in their offerings for the church. They brought their
all, amounting from two to five cash (a cash is a very small fraction of a cent), and when asked.
"What is this for""" the sweel little voiceannounced. "For a big church." or. "This is for the
I reavenly Father." |
