People Stories - J

A young man, J, originally from Australia visited BBC a few weeks ago. He came with a loaded traveling backpack so, of course, we asked about his journey and what he was doing in Beijing. He lives in another city but was in Beijing to obtain a visa so he could visit Vladivostok. Naturally that piqued Mark’s interest. While J and other BBC visitors came to our apartment one Sunday afternoon after lunch, he perused Mark’s Vladivostok pictures and tried to glean as much information as he could. In our conversations, we learned J likes to travel to interesting places and meet Xns and m’s in those places. He wants to see what God is doing in different parts of the world. We really tried to persuade him to encourage the m’s that he visits. Many of them are lonely and wonder if anyone cares what they do.  Mark sent him some contacts from his trip last fall, so hopefully they can connect. Apparently J made five trips to the embassy to finally obtain a Russian visa so the last we heard, he was on his way.  Remember this brother as he travels to support the Body.
