On September 17, 2017, Yanjing Theological Seminary held a charity bazaar to support the reconstruction of the churches heavily damaged by flooding in Yongzhou County and Anhua County of China's southern Hunan Province.
Calligraphy, paintings, and clothes were sold during the bazaar conducted in a square in front of the seminary's chapel. Donations were also accepted, the seminary's official website reported. The preparation for the bazaar was started several months ago.
Rev. Zhang Yongqiang, the seminary's pastor, said that the bazaar not only brought comfort to local believers but also inspired many to do good under any circumstance.
