The Gospel
- “You are the light of the world. A city on a
hill cannot be hidden. Neither do people light a lamp and put it under a bowl. Instead they put it on its stand, and it gives light to everyone in the house. In the same way, let your light shine before men, that they may see your good deeds and praise your Father in heaven. ”
- ----Matthew 5:14-16
The Amity Foundation, an independent Chinese non-profit organization, was created in 1985 on the initiative of Chinese Christians to promote education, social services, health, and rural development in China.
