COVID-19 Update

The 40 million people of Shanxi have mercifully been spared the worst of the current COVID-19 outbreak, and nearly all of our people have been able to remain in Shanxi during this time. Many aspects of life in Shanxi are already returning to normal, though travel and public gatherings are still restricted.

These professional service areas then help determine our need for additional team members, as well as help us focus on projects that will best serve each community into the future. We currently serve in three locations in Shanxi Province, through eight identified areas of professional service:
