Ever wish you had an opportunity for overseas ministry? Graduate/undergrad students
from China are arriving in late July through August to study at the U of MN. They need a
place to stay for several days while they find regular housing. By offering a practical
demonstration of Christian love in this way and by building relationships, you can be part
of a journey that often ends in faith and radically changed lives. If you are interested in
opening your home or would like more information please contact Bob and Joanne
Kraftson with China Outreach Ministries at [email protected] or 651-437-6806 (cell
is 651 303 7683) or check out http://tinyurl.com/HostNewArrival
