Legacy of Faith

In August of 1936, Max and Emily Bernhiem and their 5 children boarded a boat to Hong Kong, and eventually on to the Yunan Province of China. With very little money, the support of a small independent church in Spokane, WA, they set out on a mission from God, to spread the message of the gospel. Illness, another child, constant struggle, minimal support and eventual martyrdom awaited the Bernhiems, but still on nothing but their faith in our Lord they persevered. Thanks to Max and Emily, and the sacrifces they made, we will never know how many people came to know Christ. "e;And this gospel of the kingdom will be preached in the whole world as a testimony to all the nations, and then the end will come"e; Matthew 24:14 (New International Version Copyright 1984)
