Anna Wang
1886-1900 19th century
The simple, unshakable faith of a young person who already knows to whom she belongs.
Who was Anna Wang?
A Christian teenager from Hebei, China, caught with her community in the Boxer persecution. Her stepmother had agreed to apostatize and begged her to follow; Anna, fourteen, stayed with the group of the faithful. She was executed confessing her faith, and witnesses kept the memory of her calm.
In their own words
I believe in God. I am a Christian. I do not deny God.
The door of heaven is open to all.
