I hope and pray all is well with you and yours.

Trying our best to live by the word and under the Lord’s grace, Rainbow Family offers our monthly greetings.

 An old friend of ours, Mrs. Nordstrom has visited us with donations. We had a wonderful time as our students glorified the Lord through praise and dance worship. I am so thankful to MR.&MRs. Nordstrom for the constant support, love and passion.

 Due to the expansion of our Ministry, our family members and After school children are growing we are constantly working and praying in order to sustain and provide for our living expenses and for the management of our RFI school.

 We invite all our friends.

We are going to host our 17th Anniversary fundraising evening event on March 15th. It will start at 5 PM and the location is to be held at Calvary Presbyterian Church at the intersection of Knotts and Crescent.

To our friends who have been by our side for 17 years and have gratefully received the Lord’s mission,

we would like to invite you and your friends and family to come celebrate with us on this beautiful night.

James1:27

“Religion that God our Father accepts as pure and faultless is this: to look after orphans

and widows in their distress and to keep oneself from being polluted by the world.”

 I pray and bless that the grace and the blessing of peace will always be present in your families, churches, businesses, and ministries.

Dear friends

Hallelujah!!

Magpie, Magpie’s new year’s day was yesterday and our, our new year’s day is today…[translated Korean song for Korean New Year]

How are you doing during this season of climate change? Pursuing a new life under the Lord’s love and grace, Rainbow Family is offering our Chinese New Year’s greetings.

I would like to introduce a new family joined us this month: Jessi along with her three years old son, Joseph, and her newborn, Janice. The year that Joseph turned one, Jessi, who had not yet finished her drug rehabilitation education, returned to the father of her kids who was struggling with drug addictions. After she gained all her old habits back where in the process she lost her self-esteem and health, she returned to Rainbow Family. She is planning on receiving a year of rehabilitation education and has also stated that she is going to part ways with her children’s father. Looking at her determination, I am sure that she will change her ways this time. I ask for many prayers for Jessi’s family.

Last month we visited Granada Hill church pastored by Rev. Dong Hem Baek and had a great communion.

I praise the Lord that we were able to experience the Lord’s community that has been set apart from this dry and parched world.

Last week, I received a lot of advice and support from Pastor Jung Chan Kim and his wife while discussing the plans for the celebration of our 17th anniversary that is to be held on March 15th Sunday evening at 5:00 pm. I am very grateful that the Pastor and his wife always provided us with space and for their continuous support.

R.F.I. after school program, there have been some things that I have noticed among the kids. Rugged faces are now beaming with smiles and performances in schools have improved.

I pray that through God’s love, our kids can become even healthier and stronger second generation Christians and be great contributions to the Society in the future.

I would like to deeply bow my head in thanksgiving to our faithful friends like you who are pushing for a more faithful future generation by supporting and serving our ministry.

Ephesians 2:10 “For we are God’s handiwork, created in Christ Jesus to do good works, which God prepared in advance for us to do.”

I pray and bless that the grace and the blessing of peace will always be present in your families, churches, businesses, and ministries.

Because He lives,

           Janet Family                        Christmas 2019                                   Mission Community Church

Happy New Year!!

Dear friends

Hallelujah!!
Anticipating the New Year and thankful for the Lord’s abounding love, Rainbow Family is offering our greetings.

Due to faithful supporters and various church groups, we were able to experience the expansive and river like love of Christ. We are genuinely looking forward to the Lord’s plan for the coming year 2020.

For our 2019 Christmas event, Pastor David Lee from Grace Bible Church started us off with grace abounding praises and a moving sermon. We beautifully ended with Pastor Jung Chan Kim prayer of blessing. Unlike the previous 17 years, we unexpectedly had about 80 guests and victorious families who had already graduated from the program and families that wanted to be a part of the season’s love and warmth. Despite having a lot of guests, not a one person returned home without a gift and we enjoyed the loveliest Jesus birthday feast. We praise the Lord who is always able to provide miracles like the five fish and two loaves. Hallelujah!!

In the last year churches, pastors and church members have faithfully provided us with material donations and prayers. Due to the help of our friends, the children and families who were deeply submerged in hopelessness were able to create hopes and dreams for their future. For 2020, I will remember all these faithful act of love and I promise that I will dedicate myself even further in spreading the gospel. I would also like to bow my head deep in thanksgiving.

I would like to introduce Janet who is 24 years old and expecting a child along with her daughter Serenity. Janet was the youngest of her siblings and was raised underneath a mother who was addicted to drugs. At the age of 10 she was adopted and still to this day she has great difficulty talking about her past. She shares that her mother still lives in a park and on the days that it gets cold, she would deliberately get herself in jail to rest in the warmth. She also told us that when she has extra money, she visits her mom with some food to share. She has no idea where the father of her daughter is and also is not close with the father of her child that she is currently bearing. I ask for prayers for the construction of her new life and a safety delivery. Thank you!!

Isaiah 61:3

“To appoint unto them that mourn in Zion, to give unto them beauty for ashes, the oil of joy for mourning, the garment of praise for the spirit of heaviness; that they might be called trees of righteousness, the planting of the Lord, that he might be glorified.”

To friends I offer my blessings and prayers that the Lord will fill your Lives with the bounties of heaven and the riches of the earth in the New Year.

Because He lives,
