Familiar Strangers of China

Happy Christmas! Christmas Eve, in Chinese, is called “Peaceful Night,” taken from the Chinese translation of “Silent Night.” Christmas Day is translated, “Holy Birthday.” Most Chinese people don’t know what Christmas is about. Christmas is a regular business day. Young people go shopping, and some exchange apples because the Chinese word for “apple” sound the same as the Chinese word for “peace.” Hum the tune of “Silent Night” and pray for Chinese friends to know Christ’s peace that passes all understanding (Philippians 4:7). “Father, strengthen Chinese Christians this year and remind people who have heard Your story to seek You.”
