Angels of Dawn – “Liming Family”
Toward the end of 2010, I’ve had the opportunity to visit and work as a volunteer for one week at a Chinese orphanage called “Liming Family “in Biancun village, Hebei province, China. What I saw and experienced in this one week’s time have had a tremendous impact and lasting affect on me. It also gave me a deeper understanding of the Bible verse that:” It is a more blessed thing to give, rather than to receive.” Acts 20:35.
It all started in 1988 when the then beloved Bishop Raymundo Wang re-established St. Therese of the Child Jesus congregation and also the “Liming Family” for many babies who have been discarded by their own family and left at the front gate of the local churches. Nearly all of the babies have some form of physical and/or mental defects one way or another. The sisters took them all in and named each with the Chinese character “Heaven – 天” as their surnames since they are all children of God and treasures of God. Although they maybe imperfect in our worldly eye, they are all Angels of God, and I call them Angels of Dawn!
Soon news spread and more babies were “dumped off” to the churches in the pre-dawn hours. In time, both the congregation and Liming Family grew. The sisters called the place a “Family” rather than an “orphanage” with good reason because it is constantly filled with love, hope, laughter and happiness. Since inception, it has taken-in more than 400 children. Many have to be on wheelchairs and will be dependent on others for the rest of their lives. The more fortunate ones are able to move around with or without wheelchair. Some can even attend local or out of town school at a lower grade. Occasionally, due to inborn or incurable disease, they have to go through the sad phase of witnessing the passing of some of their friends in the family being received by our Lord Himself! To them, such is life and they simply have to accept life as is and as it comes. But this in turn, builds closer relations among the members in that they would all try to come back to the “family” for reunions during important holidays such as Chinese New Year, Mid-autumn festival, etc.
Here are some brief descriptions of a few of the Angels:
Angle Xuan Xuan – Tian Zi Xuan: 18 months. Unable to care for himself. One might be shocked to see him for the first time as he has a big hollow hole near the center of his face and a large bump on top of his head. No one expected him to live long after being picked up by sisters from the church gate. Yet with God’s mighty grace, he miraculously survived! However, he still faces serious abnormal growth in addition to some type of nerve damage and mental retardation. We are praying that God can perform a second miracle on him! At the same time, we are searching for reputable neuro/cosmetic surgeons who are willing to help.Jerry 1-949-302-1448 This email address is being protected from spambots.

Angel Da Bao – Tian Da Bao: 23. Quadriplegic, without four limbs at birth and must spend her entire lifetime on wheelchair. Unable to care for herself but smart and a great debater. Uses her mouth to do everything, work with beads, to write, to play computer, to turn book pages, etc. Her goal is to become a lawyer and to fight justice for the less fortunate people.
Angel Lan Lan – Tian Lan Lan: 25. Blind at birth. Minor mental retardation, no sense of directions. Able to care for herself. Likes to learn English, loves to play piano, although not Lang Lang yet but she plays rather well. Her dream is to travel overseas and play as a pianist. Lan Lan often spends a long time daily to pray for other peoples’ needs.
Angel Meng Meng – Tian Meng Meng: 19. Spastic cerebral palsy. Moves slow, difficult in learning, needs wheelchair. Able to care for herself and help feed smaller children. Has sweetest smiles.
Angel Ying Ying – Tian Ying Ying: 5. Paralysis of the lower half of the body. Needs wheelchair. Normal intelligence. Is preparing for elementary school entrance. She just LOVES to eat so much so that her chubby cheeks are almost exploding!
Angel Dou Dou – Tian Dou Dou: 7. Mental retardation and autism. A handsome young fellow with the purest gaze you will ever see. He is nick named the “Little Prince” of Liming Family. Unable to care for himself.
Angel Guo Guo – Tian Guo Guo: 17. Paralyzed from waist down. Needs wheelchair. Can care for himself. Currently going through rebellious adolescence stage and dislikes learning. 6th grade. Smart and likes to dis-assemble things. He was interested in my camera. I lend it to him and within a few minutes, he showed me two pictures of his self portrait – enlarged facial images.
Angel Shuang Shuang – Tian Shuang Shuang: 17. Severe mental retardation. Able to walk and eat but unable to care for herself most of the time. She likes to pull off and eats her own hair and also looks for hairs and dead flies on the floor as well. She would put them into her mouth when no one is looking. As a result, sisters had to cut her hair really short so she can’t pull them anymore. She would often walk around the room with her head down, carrying someone’s slipper on one hand and busy searching the floor.
Angel Er Bao – Tian Er Bao: 17. Abnormal hands and arm development. She’s able to write but very slowly. Can care for herself most of the time. Loves to speak and learn English . 7th Grade.
Angel Yu Xiang – Tian Yu Xiang: 23. Cerebral Palsy affecting lower half of his body, needs wheelchair. Able to care for himself and do handicraft work. A factory actually offered him a job but he had to turn it down due to the dorm is on the 2nd floor and there was no handicapped facility in the factory. This leaves him the only other option by riding a tricycle using his “hands” to transport passengers back and forth from the village to town to earn some money.
Angel Won Won – Tian Won Won: 5. Looks like a normal 5 yr old with normal intelligence, but has to wear diaper on a constant basis. When he can get up early, he would often go to church for the 6am Mass by himself. He’s capable of caring for himself and is now preparing to enter preschool.
Angel Kong Kong – Tian Kong Kong: 19. Cerebral palsy. Needs wheelchair. Unable to care for himself. Learning to use computer with his feet.
Angel Chong Ai – Tian Chong Ai: 15. Mental retardation with senilism. Unable to care for herself. She’s only 15 but sometimes looked like 50! She has that facial expression of a certain unbearable pain and suffering way beyond her real age. Her world is unknown to all of us. I tried to capture her facial expression but simply couldn’t do it with my digital camera. All I could do was to hold her hand and shoulder and walk with her slowly. Two days prior to my departure, she was able to hold my hand tight showing her trust in me in her own way. It was difficult for me to say goodbye to her.
Angel Bobo – Tian Bobo: 10 months. Cerabral palsy, unable to care for himself. Sleeps a lot but he sure is cute when he’s awake! Sisters are helping him with some physical therapy. Since it can be painful at times, the sisters would oftentimes cry with tears and looking sideways while performing the therapy on him.
Angel Jing Jing – Tian Jing Jing: 2. Mental retardation with spasm. Unable to care for herself. She almost never smile or laugh, but she can cry aloud for sure. One volunteer who’s an amateur photographer waited hours one time trying to capture her smile and he successfully made a beautiful shot with Jing Jing smiling. The picture even became the front cover of Liming Family’s annual magazine that year!
Angel Hua Hua – Tian Hua Hua: 18. Paralysed from waist down. Needs wheelchair. Able to card for himself. Likes to collect coins from different countries. 7th grader.
Angel Zuo Zuo – Tian Jia Zuo: 1. Down Syndrome. A super cute little boy. He has been adopted by a family in Beijing two days after my arrival. Missed by everyone, especially Sister Shi who’s in charge of children’s welfare. Hope he can adapt to the new family soon.
Angel Qing Qing – Tian Qing Qing: 21. Burnt. Qing Qing would like to try and live independently eventually. She’s studying in the town of Shijiazhuang and returns to Liming Family on weekends.
Angel Peng Peng – Tian Peng Peng: 3. Spastic Cerebral Palsy. Unable to care for himself. He’s like a tank. Just learned how to walk and he would walk all over the place and bumps himself or fall but he doesn’t complain of pain nor cry. I’ve tried to help and teach him to eat by himself at meal times and believe I have pretty much succeeded in doing so. Just hope he can maintain what he learned after I left.
Angel Lili – Tian Lili: 19. Spastic Cerebral Palsy. Can only move one of her arms slowly. Needs wheelchair and unable to care for herself. Her head would turn to one side after awhile and start drooling. But she has that broad and contagious beautiful smile when looking at people! Even though the smile was silent but it’s truly unforgettable.

What can we do to help these Angels of Dawn? To help Liming Family?
Although all non-professionals and coming from countryside background, the sisters learned quickly and developed a variety of basic programs and services aimed at helping the children and villagers as well. It is truly with the grace of God that the below achievements were accomplished under tremendous hardships such as no government support, lack of funding and lots of trials and error learnings:
Clinics – 3 small clinics stationed by sisters to help serve the surrounding villages and communities
Rehabilitation center– established a rehab center to serve all children and young adults alike with mental-retardations and various types of cerebral palsy.
Vocational training center– to train children and especially older handicapped young adults so they may be able to learn a skill, find work and become independent
Adoption family plan – for angels to have the opportunity to enjoy a “permanent” normal family life
Foster family plan – for angels to have the opportunity to experience and enjoy normal family life on either short term or long term basis
One-to-One support Plan – depending on individual’s situation, each donor is asked to provide financial support of RMB 300 (around USD50) on either monthly, annually or long term basis. For one year or longer support, donors will receive regular newsletters on the angel he/she supports. Donors can also correspond directly with his/her own angel.
Retreat Center – Many of the bishops, priests and sisters in China are overworked, stressed to the limit and do not have any good place for retreat, spiritual growth or just to rest and recharged! There isn’t any reasonably good retreat center in any of the Northern cities in China and that’s why the sisters of St Therese has undertook the heavy burden of constructing a new retreat center for all who need to use it. They’ve planned for more than 5 years and have finally raised over one million RMB. A general contractor (also a church member) has been hired and foundation work and exterior wall constructions have just begun. The sisters will have to raise another 1.5 million RMB to complete the project. It’s a huge and difficult task but the sisters are undaunted. Once completed, the center will be able to accommodate 60 people with dorms, chapel library, multi-purpose hall, spiritual counseling rooms, kitchen, dinning room, etc. The center will benefit the dioceses and various orders of several Northern provinces, priests & sisters, church groups, lay members, youth & family groups, seminarians, etc. Let us support the sisters wholeheartedly.
Support through Volunteer Service:
Liming is always on the look out for people with special knowledge, especially in the area of Special Education for the handicapped and/or mentally retarded; Psychologist who can teach the sisters as well as some young adult and even children on self awareness & self esteem. Also always in hot demand are English teachers for sisters, middle school seminarians and postulants and even some of the angels in the Liming Family.
Liming Family welcomes volunteers of all ages, college or high school students, retired lay people with special knowledge to visit them on short or long term basis for volunteer work or teach English during school breaks or anytime in between. Please feel free to contact jerry at 1-949-302-1448 This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it. for more information
Financial Support:
With almost a hundred children and young adults at Liming Family and the rehabilitation center currently, it takes roughly 1.2 million RMB annually to run the two facilities. The family now receives about RMB 150,000 from various family donors and some donations from within China. However, the majority of support comes from overseas donations and foundations and your financial support is always greatly appreciated and needed.
Donations from United States: (IRS tax deductable)
Please write check payable to: S.T.A.S.S. and mark “for Liming Family” on the Remark section of the check. Mail the check to: S.T.A.S.S. 1501 S. Atlantic Blvd. Monterey Park, CA 91754. STASS will send a tax deductable receipt to each donor directly.
Donations from outside of United States: (check with your own residing country’s tax agency regarding tax deduction issues)
For donations in foreign currency, it’s much simpler to process the wired fund to an individual’s bank account in China rather than an organization or a charity’s bank account. (Please write “for Liming family” on your T/T form). Bank of China Ningjin Branch has also agreed to waive the handling fees if funds are wired to the account of “Gong Cuihong” who is a sister in charge of Liming Family’s finance. Upon receipt of the fund, Liming Family will mail a receipt directly to each donor.

Do your children complain that they are always bored and that they have nothing worthwhile to do? If that’s the case then worry no more. Why not send them (better yet, go with them) to any of the above mentioned places in China for winter/summer mission & volunteer work or to teach English? They will learn Chinese quickly, make lots of new friends, have a wonderful and memorable time and they will thank you for it and come back a totally changed person because it will be a “life changing” experience. They will be more mature, more loving, more caring, easier to get along , respect their parents more, love their family more, love their church more and love God more and best of all, become Angels in your family!
“邊村的黎明天使”
2010年底有機會去到河北邊村的“黎明之家”做了一星期的義工。雖然輿那兒的孩子們只相處了短短一周，但我所獲得的，卻是我的禿筆或任何言語都無法形容的感觸與震撼！回來後仍然不斷的惦念著他們的一切。 現僅以此文簡單的介紹“家”裡面一些孩子們和女修會的基本情況，好譲大家能對他們有個初步的印象。如果有心人願意幇助他們一把，那除了是孩子們的福氣外，更是助人者的福氣。因爲主耶穌曾說過：『施予比領受更為有福。』－ （宗２０：３５）不但有福，而且我們所得到的，將會比所給予的多出太多太多了！
黎明之家是個很特別的地方，它也不叫作孤兒院。在那裡，每個人都因被自己最親近的家人拋棄而來到此處。幾乎所有的孩子們也都沒名沒姓，所以修女給他們取名，也就都以“天”爲姓。（因為他們都是天主的孩子, 天主的寶貝！），再加上一個個字或兩個字當做自己的名字。例如：天大寶，天國國，天佑，等等。雖然他們每一位或多或少都有些殘疾之處，但在天主眼中，他們全都是他的寶貝天使，黎明的天使！有些時候，因爲先天性絕症的緣故，孩子們和修女們不得不眼睜睜地看著他們的同伴被天主接去。雖然這對逝者未免不是一件壞事，但對大多數活著的孩子來說，還是會有那種對生命的無助輿無奈感。
請看：
炫炫天使 - 天子炫 1歲半。生活完全不能自理。初次見到子炫，就被他那奇特的長相狠狠的嚇了一跳，甚至不敢馬上正眼看他。因他五官不甚齊全，長相較為怪異。炫炫剛剛被修女揀回來時，大家都不看好他能活的太久。但靠著天主的大能，炫炫居然活了下來。但仍嚴重發育畸形（臉部中間有個大洞需做整容手術，腦磕上也不知怎的，小時常有液體流出，後來就長了一個個大肉瘤，液體也就不再流了）。加上智障 (腦部發育不全，需做腦神經手術)，北京和香港的醫院都不敢替他做。我們只能祈求天主在他身上能夠再顯一次奇蹟，同時也會試著再幇他找好的腦神經經及整容醫生。
大寶天使 - 天大寶 23歲。四肢不全但智力正常。終生需坐輪椅。聰明且口齒淩厲，有辯才。下五子棋打遍訪客無敵手。用嘴做工，冩字，打電腦，翻書等。她的夢想是當一名律師，好能幇助弱者打官司。
藍藍天使 - 天藍藍 25歲。眼盲，輕度弱智，無方向感。生活可自理，喜好學英語，愛彈鋼琴，且彈的不錯。她的夢想是當一名鋼琴家和能到國外演奏。經常每天花很長時間幇他人祈禱。
夢夢天使 - 天夢夢 19歲。痙攣性腦癱。動作慢，學習能力差。需輪椅。生活能自理。可以幫忙餵飯等等。喜對人微笑，夢夢有著全黎明之家最甜美的微笑。
瑩瑩天使 - 天瑩瑩 5歲。 截下肢，癱瘓，需輪椅。智力正常，正在做入學準備。最喜愛的事：除了吃，還是吃。小臉蛋胖到都快爆炸啦！
豆豆天使 - 天豆豆 7歲。 智障伴自閉症。生活不能自理。長得眉清目秀，雖不能講話，但他的表情及眼中只有那無盡的純真。是黎明之家的“小王子“。
國國天使 - 天國國 17歲。 肢體殘障。青春期叛逆，不愛學習。生活可完全自理，上六年級。喜愛拆卸東西，聰明。對我的相機有興趣。我交給他，只一會兒工夫，他就照了兩張自拍相 – 他的臉部大特寫。
雙雙天使 - 天雙雙 17歲。 智障，可自己吃飯和走路，但大部份不能自理。她沒事喜歡拔自己頭髮並找地上的頭髮然後往嘴裡放，修女只好把她頭髮剪短短的好譲她拔不了。有時一不注意她還會抓地上的死蒼蠅來吃。也愛手拿一隻拖鞋，低著頭直往地下看，並到處走來走去，好像在尋找甚麽似的。
二寶天使 - 天二寶 17歲。 上肢手臂發育畸形，書寫較慢，但大部份可自理。喜學英語及會話，現上初一。
玉祥天使 - 天玉祥 23歲。 腦癱，下肢癱，需輪椅。生活能自理及做手工等。有間工廠願請他去作工，可惜廠內宿舍在二樓，因無電梯及殘障設施而作罷。說不定，只能用雙手來“踩”一輛老舊三輪車，由村前載客來回到縣城，賺些辛苦錢。
旺旺天使 - 天旺旺 5歲。智力正常，活潑可愛，但需常年穿戴尿布。早上起得來時會自己摸黑走去教堂望彌撒。能學習自理，現上學前班。
康康天使 - 天安康 19歲。腦癱徐動型。生活不能自理，需輪椅，用腳學電腦。尋找適合他的技能。
寵愛天使 - 天寵愛 15歲。智障，腦癱，早衰症。生活不能自理。寵愛才15歲，但有時看起來好像已是50歲的樣子，臉上好多皺紋！表情好多愁苦！她的世界，是我們所不了解也看不透的世界，也不是我那傻瓜相機一直想抓卻怎麽也抓不到她那特殊表情的世界。她的臉上，除了那與她年齡不相稱的愁苦外，就幾乎沒有其它表情。直到我快離開的前兩天，她才會抓緊我的手，好久不願放開。或許是我經常握著她的手，伴著她走路。也可能是我已得到她某種程度的信任了吧！真捨不得離開呢！
波波天使 - 天波波 10個月。腦癱。完全不能自理，在床上睡覺時間居多。但超可愛。有做復健。雖然有時孩子痛得厲害，但修女們仍不得不狠著心，一邊流涙，一邊幫做復健。
靜靜天使 - 天怡靜 2歲。智障伴癲癇。完全不能自理。靜靜幾乎不會笑，但是會哭鬧。之前有個會攝影的義工苦等了數個鐘頭，終於譲他等到並照了張靜靜有笑容的照片。還把那張照片給登上了黎明之家的年刊呢！
華華天使 - 天華華 18 歲。截癱，需輪椅。非常投入學習。生活可完全自理。喜收集各國硬幣。現上初一。
卓卓天使 - 天佳卓 1歲。唐氏綜合症 （Down Syndrome）。 可愛極了。不過，他在我離開前兩天被北京的一個家庭收養。希望他能很快適應新家。
青青天使 - 天青青21歲。燒傷。青青希望最終能獨立生活。現在石家莊上學。週末回邊村。
鵬鵬天使 - 天鵬鵬3歲。痙攣型腦癱。生活無法自理。膽大得很，才剛學會走路就喜歡到處走動，碰碰撞撞，跌倒了也不怕痛。我一直以為他叫“碰碰”，後來才知道搞錯了。每次吃飯我都負責教鵬鵬拿湯匙並設法學會自己一口一口吃。我離開時他已學的差不多了。希望能夠保持下去。
麗麗天使 - 天麗麗 19歲。痙攣型腦癱。只有一隻手可以動一點。但大部份不能自理。需輪椅。她的頭過一陣就會偏向一邊，並且開始流口水。麗麗喜歡對人傻笑，看到人就展開她那璨爛的笑臉，笑的好開心，好高興的樣子。雖然那些都是無聲的笑。
請到下面的網站流覽一些上述天使們的照片及觀看更多黎明之家的照片。照片上有簡單的中英文解說。

我們可以如何幇助這些黎明天使? 幇助“黎明之家“？幇助女修會？
除了上面所介紹的天使外，還有不少其它天使我無法逐一介紹。邊村德蘭女修會由1988復會至今，22年期間，修女們透過黎明之家來者不拒的無盡大愛，總共收養過四百多名嬰兒。在沒有政府補助下，它在艱難中靠著天主的慈愛，修女們不懈的努力，村民的協力合作以及國內外善心人士的捐款等而不斷發展成長。以下是修會和黎明之家開辦，成立及推出的一些服務專案和贊助計畫：
1). 診所：三間由修女看診的小診所服務附近村民，社區和黎明之家
2). 康復站：成立了一間康復站為社會上的腦癱兒童及青年做復健服務
3). 就業訓練中心：- 開設了一個大齡殘疾青年就業訓練中心及助其尋找就業機會，使他們能融入社會並獨立生活
4). 收養家庭計畫：天使們可被外界的正常家庭收養，過正常家庭生活。
5). 寄養家庭計畫：天使們可短期或長期寄養在正常家庭中，使得他們也有機會享受家庭的天倫之樂。
6). 一對一助養計畫： 可視各人能力，提供天使們的生活費，每一位天使每月僅需人民幣300元（約美金50元）。您可助養一個月，一年或連續助養。助養一年以上的助養爸媽將可定期收到被助養天使的生活消息。助養爸媽亦可直接與助養天使通信往來等等。
7). 避靜中心： 由於北方各省尚無一座正規的避靜中心能夠真正地讓國內身心俱疲的神職人員（尤其是神父和修女們）去做退省及靈性的增長和充電，德蘭會決定撐起此項重任。這是一項無論在財務上或人力資源上都極為吃重的擔子。在過去五年的籌備中，它已向外籌得一百餘萬人民幣，且最近已開始地基打樁和外牆建築。此外，它仍需籌款一百五十萬人民幣以使其它施工和內外裝修能順利於2012年底完成。此座60人的避靜中心建成後， 將會有小教堂，宿舍，圖書室，多功能室，餐廳，廚房，活動室等。並將大大造福於北方數省的神職人員，教區及修會團體，教友靈修避靜，團體及個人避靜/靈修輔導, 望會生，福傳培訓生，青年及家庭輔導等等都將身受其惠。我們鼓勵大家鼎力支援。
財務上的支援：
黎明之家及康復中心收養著近百名殘疾棄嬰兒童和大齡青年，基本的開支每年需要120萬元左右（人民幣，下同）才能維持。但是來自殘疾兒童家庭的收費一年才15萬元左右，絕大部分的開支需要靠社會募捐。國內雖有些零散小額捐款，絕大多數捐款是由國外的朋友們的關心贊助，還有透過國外基金會的支援。由於黎明是教會所辦，故沒有政府補助。黎明之家特別需要國內外各界人士，商業機構，企業團體的大力財務支援。如您有受到感動，歡迎定期樂捐。美國國內捐款可抵稅 (IRS tax deductable)：
由美國國內捐款：支票抬頭： 請務必寫上 “ S.T.A.S.S. ” 支票下方請註明 “ 黎明之家”- 或 “德蘭會“。請將支票郵寄到S.T.A.S.S. 1501 S.Atlantic Blvd. Monterey Park, CA 91754 S.T.A.S.S收到支票後會開抵稅收據寄給各捐款人士。
由美國國外捐款：請自行與居住國的稅務單位詢問捐款可否抵稅一事。如用外幣匯款，請電匯至“巩翠紅”的帳號，因外幣轉到個人帳戶手續處理較方便，而且中銀寜晉支行將免收手續費。黎明之家將直接寄收據給捐款人。請在電匯單內註明“黎明之家” 或 ”德蘭會“.
