China and USA brought together through Different times, shared hearts

The ties between China and the United States have been strengthened through human encounters, such as that of Lydia Trimble, a missionary from Iowa who arrived in China in 1889. She dedicated her life to educating girls and women, establishing schools and transforming lives. Her legacy endures through her students, including He Zhenni, the first Chinese woman to lead a middle school in Fujian Province. Lydia's story continues to inspire her family, particularly her great-nephew Gordon Trimble.
