I am learning about trust
By Qian Wang
I am learning about what it looks like to trust God and what it feels like to put my trust completely in Him.
Learning to be present in the experiences and to feel the emotions. Being there to experience heartache and brokenness and seeing that the world cannot fix me. Being of the world will not fix me or bring me anywhere close to wholeness.
I am learning how much I need God and how good that is. I am learning how good our God is and how much He can pull you through. I am learning to trust and surrender, knowing that it will all be okay. Read more →
Cantonese Gospel Sunday
By Henry Leung
While sitting on the moistened deck and as the fog slowly burns away, I admire and reflect. I reminiscence the glory of yester-year as the red and gold canopy radiates under the morning sun.

Halloween
As we approach the festivities of Halloween during the month of October, we want to use this time to educate you and your child(ren) how to approach secular days and activities such as Halloween. As with all things, it is important as parents to impart biblical truths to our children and consider how we will live and make choices that are pleasing to God.
In general, we encourage you to wisely categorize activities or what your child is learning/experiencing into:
1) Good (as originally designed by God),
2) Evil (not originated by God),
3) Neutral. When you carefully study the origins of Halloween, it is clear that it falls into the category of “evil”.
Please carefully read through the content of the newsletter, asking God for wisdom how we can shine like stars in the universe in this crooked and depraved world. There are creative ways we as Christian families can shine Christ’s light during this very dark month.
