March 22, 2015 Prayer Note

Dear Family & Friends,

“Consequently a Sabbath rest remains for the people of God.  For the one who enters God’s rest has also rested from his works, just as God did from his own works.  Thus we must make every effort to enter that rest, …” 

Hebrews 4:9-11a

We as Christians should always be looking forward to entering God’s rest.  This is something that is described as being in the future after this life on earth is through for those that have chosen a life of faith and obedience to God instead of reliance on self therefore, leading to disobedience.  Yesterday, we attended Wu Ba Ba’s memorial service.  It was a beautiful experience of family and friends celebrating his life and giving glory to God.  Wu Ba Ba came to Christ later in life, but he is now enjoying the blessings of being in Christ.  He is resting from His work in the presence of God.  Join us in making every effort to enter His rest.  Pray for the Wu family as well as they continue to work through their grief.

Last week we asked you to pray for Thunder’s health especially his kidneys.  Xi En is still considering what all needs to be done for Thunder.  He is going to go to a hospital in Taipei to get a second opinion about his kidneys, but there is more to consider.  Taiwan has no pediatric urologists.  Pray that God will provide what is best for Thunder including doctors, and an adoptive family.

This past week the noon Wednesday discipleship group did not meet, so John will share with them the story of the crucifixion this week.  His Wednesday evening discipleship group did meet.  He shared with them the account of Jesus’ resurrection.  There was one particular person that had a marked response, Wu Lau Shr or Teacher Wu.  Her two sisters and her mom are all three Christians.  They have prayed for her for years.  She expressed that over the past year or more she has been coming to faith.  She has not yet chosen to be immersed, but she is close.  Pray that Wu Lau Shr and others will choose to act on their faith and be obedient to Christ Jesus through Christian baptism.

Our annual Sports & English Camp will begin registration very soon.  We are excited as this summer their will be two weeks of camp offered.  We will be able to serve more students and turn less away.  We ask that you be praying for all those who will attend and everyone who will be serving as faculty during the weeks.

Thank you for praying for us as we prepare to move to Taichung this June.

God Bless,

John & Cheryl
