Thursday, April 6, 2017 Today the church remembers Daniel Gee Ching Wu, Priest and missionary among Chinese Americans in the San Francisco Bay area, d. 1956.*

                                    Psalm 133:1 

Oh, how good and pleas-ant 
it is 
when brothers and sisters 
live together in unity.


Gee Ching Woo learned English in Hawaii from the  deaconess Emma Dreamt after she asked him to teach her Chinese.  Inspired by her Christian convictions, he  was baptized, taking the name Daniel.  Drant moved to San Francis and started missionary work with the Chinese which became True 
Sunshine Church, which continues to this day.  Ching moved to the Bay area, attended CDSP and was ordained a priest in 1912 and continued his work there until his death in 1956.

By the power of 
the Holy Spirit,
raise up other 
inspired leaders, 
that today's
newcomers 
may find leaders from their diverse 
communities faithful to our Savior 
Jesus Christ - Collect
