Microsoft Word - 9 월달 편지 12          Amanda’s Family           grandmother Issa and Kids    LA Young Nak Celebration Church 

Dear Friends,   Hallelujah!!
I hope all is well with you in these hot summer days.
Rainbow Family is filled with his love growing in faith daily.

I would like to introduce new family we have in the home. 25 year old mother named Amanda, 6 year old son Nathan and 2 year old son Zack. Amanda was born in Ontario. She never knew her mom.  Father is a Christian and she went to church. When she was 17 years old she met her husband they always struggled with drug and alcohol addiction. One day husband just left home, leaving Amanda and 2 kids behind. About 4 months ago she found out he was in jail. Loneliness and regret took her into a deeper addiction and she couldn’t handle her life let along taking care of the children. Church that she belonged to found the Rainbow Family Ministry brought her to us.  She has a daily struggle would you pray with me for her victory in Christ.

59 year old lady Issa was a single mother all her life she worked very hard to raise 3 children; her 24 year daughter who is very deep into drug addiction and in and out of jail, was struggling  with 2 children. Issa was  helping  her daughter with her family, one day the daughter just left her 2 kids behind with grandmother Issa. She was praying to find a safe place to go with her 2 grandchildren. Lord answered her prayer and brought her to Rainbow Family. She prays in her tears every night for her daughter’s salvation. Personally I have never seen anyone so grateful to the Lord for her refugee.
I believe the Lord will comfort her and keep them.

LA Young Nak Celebration Church came out with more than 20 volunteers, to serve families at the home for “Queen for more than a day” project. They came out with such a love in their hearts, to serve our mothers and children. The kids did crafts and had so much fun. Mothers had haircuts, facials, pedicure, and manicures they looked like a Queen and felt like a Princess. And one team went out to the front yard and painted a play ground they donated  few years ago like brand new. Their unconditional love and serving harts for the community encouraged us and gave our mothers confidence and did wonders for their self-esteem. We thank the Lord for them.

Because of Confidentiality we are not able to put pictures of families living in the Jonathan Home.
Would you pray with me for their healing?
Because of Las Vegas financial depression it is very hard to find the supporters for the ministry in the city. I need your help desperately to keep the doors open.

Matthew25:35-36
“For I was hungry and you gave me something to eat, I was thirsty and you gave me something to drink, I was a stranger and you invited me in,
I needed clothes and you clothed me, I was sick and you looked after me, I was in prison and you came to visit me.’”

Please join me through phone-a-thon to give clean bead and warm nourishing food to struggling single mother families by becoming a yearly member for the RFM.  I thank you.

Because He lives,
