A 6.9 magnitude earthquake has hit the Yushu region located in the southern part of the Qinghai province, about 800 km from Xining. Yushu has a population of 120,000 people. Death reports vary from 3,000 to 20,000. The hardest hit area was the city centre of Jiegu township where 80% of the houses have collapsed. It may take two to five years to rebuild this area. Please continue to pray for our medical ministry, In Him,

Ningxia, Shaanxi, Gansu These are the poorest provinces in Western China. Most people in the mountainous regions live in extreme poverty and are in desperate need of medical aid. Since 1991, EMAS has been leading medical teams in this remote region, providing medications, medical and dental supplies, teaching and training local healthcare workers, treating patients and improving the overall health of these people. Over the past 19 plus years, they have also established nine “Living (drinking) Water” projects and 14 EMAS hospitals in this region. At the moment, there are two more EMAS hospitals under construction, one in Gansu and another in Ningxia. There are close to 400 team members who have participated in these EMAS China West Missions.

This area has a critical water shortage. It is like “The third world of the third world.” EMAS has been helping bring water to this region. We’ve helped reduce water-born infections by providing new reservoirs, cisterns and water pipes (nine water projects in total), bringing spring water to village households. Monuments have been publicly displayed, proclaiming “Whoever drinks the water I give him will never thirst” and “God loves everyone.” |

Ningxia and Qinghai Projects The 27-member EMAS Ningxia medical missions team held free clinics in the seven EMAS hospitals, trained local health personnel, taught English and distributed gifts to children.
On May 28, 2008, the opening ceremony of the EMAS Cao-Wa Hospital was held and was celebrated by hundreds of villagers. We pray that God will use this beautiful new EMAS hospital to meet the needs of the villagers.
In Xining, we were able to make contact with a local pastor, an orphanage and a home for the disabled with the help of Esther Lui and Praise Ma. The team was also able to see some patients at the church.
