Dear Friends, I want to share some very exciting news to glorify what God has done, through your support and love!!

My Book SWEET LIKE JASMINE IS NAMED
A FINALIST FOR THE 2022 CHRISTIAN BOOK AWARD
AWARDED BY The Evangelical Christian Publishers Association (ECPA)

“The Christian Book Award® program recognizes the highest quality in Christian books and Bibles and is among the oldest and most prestigious awards program in the religious publishing industry. Presented annually to the finest in Christian publishing since 1978, the Christian Book Award® program honors the “best of the year” in 12 categories.”

Earlier this summer, to my surprise – and to God’s glory and only because of YOUR support for this book’s release and ministry as an author –– I officially got the amazing news that my new book Sweet Like Jasmine has been selected as a finalist in the Memoir Category for this industry award!! Here are the finalists.



Who would have guessed that a little girl born in San Francisco Chinatown to a teenage mail-order bride from Hong Kong for a mother who was abandoned by a father who worked in a noodle-shop could ever publish a book about her stories of faith and the hope of the Gospel?  It is only by God’s amazing grace through your support of reading, gifting, buying and sharing about my book– writing reviews and recommending and inviting me to speak. It is only because we have this amazing connection as sisters in Christ, who are loved by the same Loving Savior Jesus, that you have opened your heart and been generous to support me.
