Now I Know His Name: My Joys, Struggles, and Discoveries While Living in China

by Frankie Willingham Wyatt

After the death of her husband, sixty-two-year-old Frankie Wyatt wondered what to do next in her life. God had a plan: He was going to send her to China.

Frankie Willingham Wyatt had heard of the need of the Chinese people to hear about Jesus Christ. After she and her husband, Cecil, retired to Picayune, Mississippi, Cecil became seriously ill and was ultimately called to his heavenly home. Now alone, Frankie prayed for God’s direction in her life. God pointed her to China, and Frankie stepped out in faith.

Reissued with an epilogue and a new cover, Now I Know His Name shows what it is like to be a missionary in a foreign country. Most of Frankie’s time in China was spent teaching English in both public and private schools. She had difficulty learning Chinese, but God’s love bridged the language barrier.

Truly able to laugh at herself, Frankie shares many enlightening stories with humor and compassion. God used her in a mighty way to lead numerous people to salvation through Jesus Christ. She made many new friends who now call her “Mom” or “Grandma.” With God’s help, Frankie made a difference in the lives of countless individuals.

Based on emails that Frankie sent home, this book recounts her adventures and experiences in China. It is like reading a missionary letter written specifically to you.
