          Maria’s Family                  Union Church                Thanksgiving Dinner     

                Merry Christmas!!

Dear Friends   Hallelujah!!

I hope you are well in this suddenly chilly weather. We, the Rainbow Family, who are pursuing a new life in the grace of the Lord and being healed by His love, send you our greetings. We sincerely thank you for the love that the living Lord has poured out and your generous prayers and support throughout 2023.

I would like to introduce a family that was sent to us last month: 26-year-old Maria, and her 6-year-old daughter Melody. Maria became a part of the Rainbow Family through a church referral while she was struggling with many difficulties, including losing her daughter due to her baby’s father’s violence, having trouble finding a place to live, and only having two days of work per week. She is very grateful to the Lord for being able to get her daughter back and for becoming a part of the Rainbow Family. We ask for your prayers and support for them. Thank you.

R.F.I. former chairman Lee Soo-in started the Thanksgiving help for the needy years ago, and every year the Lord sends precious people to continue it. This year, thankfully, Pastor Hyun Soo-il and his wife, Elder Oh Tae-gyun, and the Men’s and Women’s Missionary Society of Union Church prepared several turkeys and ingredients for a Thanksgiving meal full of love and care, which were generously distributed to many families for a warm and happy Thanksgiving. For those families who could not come due to lack of transportation, we delivered turkeys and side dishes. We sincerely thank you for your beautiful love and support.

On Saturday, December 16th at 11:00 a.m., an annual event will be hosted where gifts and meals are distributed at the Rainbow Home. We would like to invite our friends who work with us to celebrate the birth of Jesus and his great mercy and grace.  I sincerely thank you for your beautiful love and support as I experienced the miracle of heaven coming to earth. 

The Rainbow Family children are writing letters to the Lord exchanging gifts, I definitely do not want to disappoint them. Please help me so that I will be able to provide gifts for our RFI families and the families who have graduated our program in previous years. Thank you!!

Let your light shine before men, and let them see your good works and give glory to your Father in heaven. Just as this verse states, let others see the father’s faithfulness and love through your works as you help us during this Christmas event. 

Luke 2:14  

“Glory to God in the highest heaven, and on earth peace to those on whom his favor rests.”

We pray and bless that the infinite joy of Christmas and the blessing of living hope will be abundant in our supporters’ families, businesses, and Ministries. 

 

Because He lives,
