An anonymous Christian woman in Fuzhou, Fujian prayed and donated for the floods in Henan Province.
She, unwilling to give her real name, used to be a retired corporate worker with a low salary who now serves in a church in Fuzhou after retiring from her position. At the end of July, when heavy rains devastated Henan, she prayed daily for the safety of Henan, donating 3,000 yuan to the disaster-stricken churches in Henan through the Social Service Department of China Christian Council.
In 2018, when she heard that a preacher at a church in Minnan, Fujian, was earning just over 300 yuan a month, she sent 500 yuan a month to support the rural preacher.
The following year, she learned from Gospel Times, a Christian Christian newspaper, that three rural churches in one county had no church building. She gave a tenth of her monthly salary to these rural churches. Today, two rural churches have been completed. She still prays for the ability to support another rural church under construction until it is completed.
When the fight against the coronavirus pandemic in Wuhan began in early 2020, she heard that many brothers and sisters in the Wuhan church were short of masks and other protective items, so she donated 6,000 yuan to the church in Wuhan.
She said, "I would like to raise my daughter to be a caring person, and I hope she can do the same ten percent dedication when I am alive..."
Moved by her mother's kindness, her family joined together to give donations to the church in Wuhan.

福州一位不愿透露真名的姐妹,为河南水灾祷告并奉献。
她是一位企业职工,工资不高,从岗位退休后就在福州一个基督教堂服侍。7月底,河南暴雨成灾,她天天祷告祝愿河南平安,并通过基督教全国两会社会服务部转交3000元给河南灾区教会。2018年,她听到福建闽南某教会的传道人月工资才300多元,她就每月寄上500元支持这位农村传道人。第二年,她从《福音时报》获知有一个县的三个农村没有基督教堂,正在建殿堂,她又以每月工资的十分之一先后奉献给这三个乡村教会。如今,已有两个农村教堂落成。她向神许愿,要再为另外一个在建的农村教会作奉献,直至教堂建成!2020年初武汉抗疫开始,听说武汉教会中不少弟兄姐妹缺少口罩等防护品,她便托人向武汉教堂捐了6000元。她说:“我很感恩!我要培养女儿的爱心,希望我在世时女儿也能做到十分一的奉献……”女儿被母亲的善举感动,全家人一起为武汉教会作出奉献。
