Jocelyn Sharing day Vanessa Family
Praise the Risen Lord!!
Dear Friends,
Hallelujah!!
I hope and pray all is well with you and yours. The abundantly sprouting buds and the blooming flowers seem to be joining us in the praise of our Lord’s resurrection.
I would like to introduce 25 year old Jocelyn who was sent to us. Jocelyn suffered greatly due to drug abuse, and she also shared that she grew up under single mother with her brother. The year she turned 3, her parents divorced and thus she always finds herself to be lonely. When our gentle and loving Jocelyn found out she was pregnant she joined a rehabilitation center for 60 days to quit drugs. After she completed her rehabilitation program, she joined our Rainbow Family. Although she has a long way to go she has accepted Jesus Christ as her savior. We are supporting her rehabilitation education and bible study. Even though it is Jocelyn’s first time reading the bible, she is struck in awe by the many statements of truth. We ask for your prayer and support for Jocelyn who is holding steadfast to the love of Christ.
Vanessa and her 3 children who have been living with us for 2 years and 6 month have moved to an apartment with their grandmother who has moved from Kansas. As Vanessa, the children, and I were very close to each other, it hurts my heart to see them go. But I put their future in the hands of the Lord and pray with all my heart for the peace of her family.
Once a month, we are distributing food and household items to our neighbors in need. This time, we were able to share a many 20 pound bags of rice given by the Korean Christian Radio Station, the food provided by the Ilshin Presbyterian Church, and the household items that were given by our friends like you. For families that did not have cars or who walked and difficulty coming to us, we delivered the items to them. Even in the United States, there are many families that are in need. All of this ministry is possible because of our friends like you. We bow our heads in thanksgiving.
During these complicated and heartbreaking times, God has placed many faithful people like us who are not swayed by the things of the world. Even at such times as this,
I want to be able to realize the providence of our Father and protect my heart while serving our neighbors.
1Peter1:3 “Praise be to the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ! In his great mercy he has given us new birth into a living hope through the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead,”
To the supporters who thank the Lord’s grace and serve your neighbors, I pray and bless that above your family, church, business, and ministry, the Lord’s resurrection power that makes all things good and an army of angels will always be by your side.
Because He lives,
Liz Lee
