A Visit to the Capital
In February 2025, our field staff member Nancy had the opportunity to visit our sponsored visually impaired college students in Beijing.
As a freshman at college, Xin Yi, is a shy and rather introverted girl.
"Thank you very much, RM uncles and aunties who have helped me. I wish each of you success in the new year and prosperity for your life.”
Beijing is cold. I can't let go of the roses in my hand. Beijing is always a very busy city.
Dong Haiyu, a CCU graduate, works in the same massage parlor with her loving husband who has some vision. Their love for one another motivates them to stay in Beijing.
Beijing's subways are always full of people.
Zhang Zhong works at the Fortune Center in Beijing. He is hardworking, smart and enthusiastic.
In the evening, I had dinner with Zhang Zhong and Li Jiaqi, also a CCU graduate.
"Hello, RM aunties and uncles, my name is Zhang Zhong. I graduated in 2018 at Changchun University -- class of 2018. I am working in a community hospital in Beijing. Because of the help of RM uncles and aunties while I was in college, I was very blessed and learned a great deal. Your help enabled me to find a great job after graduation. Thank you for your help over the years. I hope we can meet in person someday.”
“Hello, everyone, my name is Li Jiaqi. I graduated from Changchun University 2 - 3 years ago and I’m working now. Life is never easy, so I especially thank you for your help and support over the past years. Because of your help, I fully experienced and felt your warmth, love and concern. Currently, work and life are relatively smooth. Thank you very much. I’d love to meet and greet you in the days ahead, learn what you're doing, and sit with you someday. “
The morning I left, I went to see Ning Zhiyuan. Facing his upcoming graduation, Zhiyuan said he wanted to continue onto graduate school.
"We welcome RM uncles and aunties to come to Beijing for fun.”
Beijing has many opportunities, is inclusive and has relatively well-developed barrier-free facilities, giving them a sense of belonging.
I’m grateful for the opportunity to visit students on behalf of RM. I always feel sad to leave but look forward to seeing them again in the future.
May God’s grace always be with them.
Thank you, RM, for your gracious support and loving care for visually impaired college students.
