Summary
Welcome to the China Compass podcast on the Fight Laugh Feast Network!
You can follow me on Twitter, @chinaadventures, where I post daily reminders to pray for China (PrayforChina.us). You can also email me any questions or comments @ bfwesten at gmail dot com… And if you want to learn more about our missions projects or get one of my books, visit PrayGiveGo.us.
We start out by discussing Tim Walz' ties to China, as seen in two different articles...
Seven Troubling Tim Walz Connections to Communist China
Tim Walz’s Long Relationship With China Defies Easy Stereotypes

Next we talk about our primary sponsor, Pray for China, where we encourage Christians from every US state to pray for every Chinese province. Today in “honor” of Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz, we are looking at the Chinese province of Heilongjiang (Black Dragon River), which is paired up with the state of Minnesota for prayer in our Pray for China intercession scheme.
Heilongjiang translates literally as Black Dragon River, and is located in far northern China just south of the Black Dragon River, which separates it from Siberia to the north. Black Dragon River is known for its pine forests, rivers, lakes, and frigid winter weather (sound familiar?). It makes a natural fit for Minnesota.
The capital of Black Dragon River is Harbin, but that same trip I also visited the towns of Suihua, Hegang, Yichun, Jiamusi, Shuangyashan, Jixi, Qiezihe, Qitaihe, Mishan, Hulin, and more. I tell a few stories in the time that remains…
- 4am Conversation with a Homeless Man

- Double Duck Mountain Orphanage
- Thinking in Chinese for the 1st Time
- More fun town names: Eggplant River, Western Chicken, Tiger Forest
- One final story. It was in one of these cities where I ate dog for the first time.
- And can you guess the one and only place I've eaten camel (burgers)?
