Jonathan Home, Pastor and Mrs. Choi  YNCC Women’s Conference  Friends Visiting on Easter

Dear friends,

Hallelujah!! I hope all is well with you.
Greetings from Rainbow Family!

We have great news to share about the RFM Jonathan Home in Las Vegas. As you know, we have struggled in the past
few months with the Jonathan Home operation due to lack of funding and difficulties in finding proper management staff.
Through a mutual connection in St. Petersburg, Russia, we are blessed to have entered into a partnership with Pastor
Won Seok Choi and his wife. Pastor Choi’s focus in ministry is addiction recovery and inner healing. Through this
partnership, Jonathan Home will provide residential prevention services to Korean-speaking international students and
offer inner healing services to the larger Korean community in Las Vegas .
We praise the Lord for this collaboration with Pastor Choi and anticipate only good things to come.

Would you join me in prayer and support for the Jonathan home in Las Vegas? We cannot do this without your help.

Our long time friend Yong Nak Celebration Church (YNCC) held a women’s conference and invited all of the mothers
and children to attend. We had a blessed time of fellowship during the all-day event. There were many speakers touching
many issues of interest to women and our ladies came away with much learning and inspiration.
We thank YNCC for their continued support and love.

Sarang Community Church held their Easter celebration and we joyfully participated. We had a wonderful lunch, and the
children enjoyed face-painting, games, and bounce houses. Through fellowship and the church’s generosity, the children
and ladies experienced the love of God.

We had many friends visit us for Easter Dinner. They came bearing gifts and donations.
How beautiful it is to have friends and family in the Lord!

I am continually amazed at how He splits the Red Sea for me to this day. Sometimes it seems like there is nobody around,
but then I find that He has prepared His will for me, and has provided in ways that I could not have foreseen. I give Him
glory and honor and thanks.

1Corinthians 2:9
“However, as it is written: “No eye has seen, no ear has heard, no mind has conceived what God has prepared for those
who love him””

I pray May His resurrection power be with you and your church, family, ministry, and workplaces always.

Because he lives,

      Nicole’s  Family                                                          Korean Culture Day

Dear Friends,
Hallelujah!!
I hope and pray all is well with you.

All of the new shoots and blooming flowers of springtime are reminding me of all creation and its celebration of the
resurrection of Christ with us.

Currently, we have a spectrum of recovery and rehabilitation going on among a full house of Rainbow Family Mothers
and children. Some Mothers at the home are going to school and working regularly. Other Mothers are doing their
rehabilitation curriculums. But we are all in His grace, trying to live by the word of God, and to learn through him a
healthier way of life.

Nicole has been with us on and off for the last six years. She calls me Mom, and she has returned to live with us again
with her children. Nicole has not seen her mother since she was 14 years old. The negative impact of this relationship has
affected her ability to lead a healthier life. Her children’s father was someone she met in high school. She refers to him
as having been her “partner in crime,” running a mock in their addictions. About four years ago, he was arrested, and is
still in prison. Nicole has struggled to survive on her own with her two small children, and has returned home to Rainbow
Family. She recently commented to me that if she had not accepted Jesus Christ as her savior in our home six years ago,
she would not have had the strength to overcome these difficult years. She thanks God for his mercy and grace.

On Lunar New Year, Rainbow Family was invited to Korean Culture Day, sponsored by The Global Children Foundation.
Each child received Korean hanbok (traditional Korean costumes), and we all feasted on traditional new year food.
I thank The Global Children Foundation and Pastor Mary Lee for their generosity and friendship.

I have obeyed my calling from the Lord for the last 10 years, and have cared for those whom He has sent to me with
my whole heart. I have led them to the Lord and have told them of the victory that He promises. I have witnessed the
transformation in their daily lives. I understand that His love is deeper and more potent than any sin that we know.
Only His love can overcome the world.
In order for me to share His perfect love and to help neighbors in need, I need your help!!

When you receive a sponsorship letter about Rainbow Family annual Walk-A-Thon being held on Saturday, April 6,
2013. Won’t you pray for and support our familys by sponsoring a walker in this event? Thank you.

John I, 4:18-19 “There is no fear in love. But perfect love drives out fear, because fear has to do with punishment. The
one who fears is not made perfect in love. We love because he first loved us.”

I pray May His resurrection power be with you and your church, family, ministry, and workplaces always.

Because he lives,

            Maria & Ethan                      Suzie & Dennae                            Our friends

Dear Friends,
Hallelujah !!

I hope all is well with you.
Greetings from Rainbow Family

I would like to introduce our new family members. Maria is a 24 year old who has a three year old son Ethan.
Maria’s father left the family when she was a little girl leaving her and her four siblings. In Junior High School she was
introduced to drugs She felt accepted by the wrong crowd, she has struggled with drug and alcohol addiction, due to
her addiction she was unable to finish school or hold a job. She finally decided to make a change for a better life and self
admitted to a rehabilitation program in the city of Pasadena for treatment. Since then, she has gained custody of her
son and now residing with us at Rainbow Home “And we give Thanks to God for that”. She and her son are adjusting
well and she is very grateful to the Lord for all that he has done for her.

We have another new family member Suzie age 45, single mother and her daughter Dennae 17 years old. She has
been a single mother for 16 years, has been working in a nursing home. She has struggled with alcohol because of
loneliness and pain. Her daughter made her aware of her alcohol problem and now they are here to fellowship with
other Christians and find new way of life. Suzie feels she is falling in love with the Lord once again. Would you pray with
me for Suzie’s inner healing?

Our friends Mrs. Joe from River of Grace Church in Fullerton, and Mrs. Kim from Dream Church in Pasadena came to us
with a great recipe for Man-Du (wong ton). They thought the ladies how to prepare a delicious Korea dish. The ladies
were very excited have to have learned new skills and techniques to cook an Asian Dish. We had a pleasant lunch with
the delicious food that was prepared, and it was a wonderful time of fellowship.

As we sat and fellowshipped with different cultures and come together in unity to serve the Lord and one other, I felt
that this is how it will be when we are in heaven. We here at RFM appreciate the kindness and compassion that they
show us.

Psalms 8:4-5
“What is man that you are mindful of him, the son of man that you care for him?
You made him a little lower than the heavenly beings and crowned him with glory and honor.”

Thank you so much for your help. All of us sending you our special love and thanks.

I pray for God’s rich blessings upon you and yours.

Because he lives,

Liz Lee
Director of RFM

Happy New Year!

Dear Friends
Happy New Year to you from us at rainbow Family Ministry!

We experienced this past Christmas such tremendous support and love.
Our Mothers and children received funds and toys from the supporters like you,
neighborhood churches and even the police station.

Christmas Eve from afternoon on the graduates and their children from the Rainbow
Home came with healthy and victorious presence;
I can’t help but praise God for his good work in their lives.

After the Christmas service at the home we had wonderful feast together and shared
joy and gifts. Children made Christmas cookies and gave them to me as a gift.
We experienced the presence of the Lord that evening.
Seems like children have grown up so much over the years, Such a joy to see them
again this year.

We are so thankful that the members of the Global children foundation made a visit last
month as a previous years with the abundance of leaving supplies and with Christmas
gifts for Rainbow Family’s mothers and children.
We shared testimonies and great time of fellowship together, and it was such an
encouragement to all of us.

Hanna and her friends from Grace church have been faithfully coming to volunteer after
school for the Rainbow children.
Because of their dedication the children’s school grades have improved tremendously.
And the love they share makes a big difference in children’s behaviors.
We thank God for their service in love.

We had a special speaker, Chaplin Raquel from Orange county women’s jail.
Who shared a wonderful Christmas message, It was a time of sharing touching and
gracious testimonies, and we praised and glorified the Living Lord together.

Thanks to the Stamp foundation’s help our home has brand new pain and windows just
in time for the chilly winter.

I am so happy that we could share the gifts and living needs with the mothers and
children who came for Christmas at the Rainbow home.

I thank you from the bottom of my heart for your prayers and financial support.
I can’t do this without help from friends like you.

Psalms 81:10
“I am the Lord your God, who brought you up out of Egypt.
Open wide your mouth and I will fill it.”

I pray big dreams that you have for “2013 will all come true because we serve a big
God.

Many Blessings to you and yours.

Merry Christmas!!
Dear Friends,
Hallelujah!!     Greetings from the Rainbow Family.

Looking back the year 2012, I give my thanks and glory to my faithful savior Emanuel for his endless love and grace.

I would like to introduce to you our new family member 50 years old Angela, and her daughter 13year old Serenity. They were staying at a domestic violence victim shelter due to Angela’s husbands’ dysfunctional lifestyle.
The Lord led them to us and they are adjusting very well, concentrating on their rehabilitation.
Would you pray with me for their complete healing from the past?

It was a great Thanksgiving day at the RFM because many family and friends came by, including the families who used to be with us. It was so good to see them and to share the meal together. We had many testimonies and laughter; it was a great time of Worship and rejoicing in the Lord.

This would not have been possible without prayer and support of friends like you.
I thank you from the bottom of my heart.

We are so happy for Marissa’s 9 year old daughter Crystal getting elected to be a student council.
For the last whole year of staying at RFM, her grades were improved and She has opened up and she is much happier Thanks to the Lord.

I have great news!! 10 years of my daily journal of his miracle working power in our ladies and children’s lives and the powerful testimonies of the single moms are included in the book called” Love Came Down” “하늘에서 떨어졌어요” has been published. The purpose of publishing the book was to give hope to the hopeless and to glorify our living Lord.
It can be a great gift for a Christmas present. If you want to purchase the books, simply send $15.00 plus $3.35 shipping fee; $18.35 in total. We will ship to you a.s.a.p.

All the funds from sales of the books will be used  for Jonathan home.
I need your help more than ever I need your prayer and support so we can keep the
Jonathan home doors open in Las Vegas.
Thanking you for being a partner for RFM to save the lost and the least.

Luke 2:14
“Glory to God in the highest, and on earth peace to men on whom his favor rests.”

I pray the joy of the Christmas and living hope of miracles and blessings are with you and yours in this glorious season.

Happy thanksgiving

Dear Friends,      Hallelujah!!
I hope all is well with you.
We’ve been continuously praying for the safety of our friends suffering from the recent storm in the East Coast.

As we look back the year of 2012, our hearts are filled with thanksgiving for His gracious goodness.
We thank God for using Pastor yun Park and me in the ministry of taking care of the least and the lost who are with us and those who passed through RFM and settled down in the society as well.
I am so thankful for bringing the partners like you who support RFM with prayers, and finance.
Without your support, RFM couldn’t be where we are today. We thank God for Friends like you.
I must confess His grace and mercy is so abundant that it absolutely causes us to be able to overcome the world and to be more than a conqueror.
Joy He gives in our hearts strengthens us each day.
Today and tomorrow and until Jesus comes back, RFM will not stop sharing His love wherever we are.

I am thankful to Mr. & Mrs. Chu and the young adult members of “All Ministry” who made a long trip to visit Jonathan Home. It was such an encouragement as we prayed together in the hope to make a difference in the world in Christ’s name.
The founder of A’gaci Foundation, Meenah Won, who has been one of the strong supporters  for the last 10 years also came to visit Jonathan Home.  It was such a blessing as she comforted and encouraged the ladies at The Home with loving care. I am so thankful for her Godly character.

Please remember and help RFM’s single moms and children  at this Thanksgiving season.
There are some moms and children who once made their home at RFM and went on to be independent  and yet who are still in urgent daily needs occasionally for such as food, laundry detergent, baby’s diapers, money for gasoline and etc. I want to be their mom they can count on when they show up at my door for help.
I need your help
All your contributions are tax deductable.

Psalm100:4-5
“Enter his gates with thanksgiving and his courts with praise; give thanks to him and praise his name.
For the LORD is good and his love endures forever; his faithfulness continues through all generations.”

I pray for God’s rich blessings upon you and yours.

Nice cool breeze and the changing color of the leaves sure feels like autumn.

I cannot put up the picture because of confidentiality but we had a Korean thanksgiving feast at the Jonathan home in Las Vegas. It was great time of fellowship, no matter how hard the circumstances are we rejoice in our culture and comforted each other.

Jessica and Joseph was with us in the Buena Park home for one year, they successfully graduated from the 12 month rehabilitation program. We thank God for his faithfulness. While she was with us she obtained a job to help her be able to rent a room from her grandpa. Would you pray with me for her victory in the Lord.

I was invited to be a guest speaker for the Women’s Ministry Dedication Service at our old time friend and supporter New Hope Church in Pasadena. I was impressed by their zeal to serve the community as a woman’s group. We had a wonderful time of fellowship that was full with love. I trust the Lord blessed everyone that dedicated themselves that day.

Orange Korean Church located in Fullerton invited all Rainbow Family to their picnic service. We had great food; great fellowship and our single moms were comforted by their love and kindness. Thank God for their friendship.

I thank everyone who joined us in our annual phone-a-thon as a yearly member also for being a onetime giver at this event.  Please join us to be a member of financial support team for $20.00 a month so we can bring souls to the kingdom as well as provide hot meals and warm bed for many single mothers in Jesus name.
If you haven’t responded to this life changing call please join us now.

Thank you so much for your help.  All of us sending you our special love and thanks.

Isaiah 58: 7-8
“Is it not to share your food with the hungry and to provide the poor wanderer with shelter-when you see the naked, to clothe them, and not to turn away from your own flesh and blood? Then your light will break forth like dawn, and your healing will quickly appear; then your righteousness will go before you, and the glory of the Lord will be your rear guard.”

I pray for God’s rich blessings upon you and yours.

          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.

“Praise the Lord for his faithfulness”

Dear Friends,
Hallelujah!!

I hope all is well with you.

RFM is in ministry for the 10th year. We praise the Lord for saving me and brother park long ago to use us in his kingdom work. Touch us with his knowledge of grace to know meaning of the cross and thank him for making us radical followers to carry on his great commission to be a missionary to Jerusalem, Judah, Samaria and to the ends of the earth. I thank God for being Father to the fatherless, husband to the widow and taking them to a victory in all circumstances.

Within 10 years Mrs. Kim, Mun, Kang…….Maria, Sarah, Jessica, Michelle…. about 300 different families been given shelter and feed them, clothed them, healed them and he broke their shackles and freed them in the truth.
I cry overwhelmed with thanksgiving in my heart remembering his Goodness and Mercy over the years

Since the summer of 2002 you came and prayed for me and supported me financially and morally, you believed in our ministry and you were always there for us. Thank God for friends like you. We opened Jonathan Home in Las Vegas in 2011 for the domestic violence and human trafficking victims. And you remember to pray for me and sent contributions to Las Vegas so we could continue ministry there.
I thank you from bottom of my heart for all your prayers and support to bring us this far.

We had many difficult times during last 10 years, without your love and encouragement we couldn’t have made it.
I am expecting with you his good work in the future.  I praise the Lord for you.

We assure you RFM will share the good news with the lost and the least and shed his love anywhere now and until the day of Jesus Christ.

James 1:27
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.

P.S. Please keep in mind Rainbow Family Ministry mailing address has been change to:
PO Box 602, Cypress, California 90630

I thank God for moving your hearts to give the hope for the future and kingdom to women and their children in today’s life struggle.

Jonathan Home Dedication Service            Joseph’s Graduation               Lizette and Children

Dear Friends,
Hallelujah!!

Bright sunshine reminds us summer is on its way. I hope everything is well with you.

Children from Rainbow Family are enjoying their summer vacation running around and playing on the playground.

The 14th of June we had a dedication service for the Jonathan home in Las Vegas. Supporters of the ministry drove in and flew in from California. A couple of churches from Las Vegas joined us, the founders of The Walter Hoving  Home  and also the Korean Association Executives were there. Over 40 friends and supporters gathered together in new facility that is bright and spacious praising the Lord for his good work. Asking him to pour down his spirit in the city that’s been darkened by the things of world for so long. We were praying in one accord that the Lord would heal the city through the Jonathan Homes vision. I thank everyone that came that day even in the midst of their busy schedules.

Jessica’s son precious little Joseph graduated from Kindergarten. Joseph was born 2006 at rainbow house. Jessica his mom graduated the program successfully and went back home with Joseph. Joseph lost his father through violent crime and they came to live with us last year. Joseph is very bright and happy little man. He loves school and most of the time he gets 100% on his schoolwork and makes Jessica and us very happy and proud. We need your prayer and support so Jessica and Joseph will always renew their joy of salvation daily.

Lizette started working at Knott’s Berry Farm. She goes to work diligently every day with cute costume. She is going to the court July 17th to get her 3 daughters back into her custody. Lizette has been in rehab for almost a year she is determined to live new way of life. Would you pray with me that Lizette would get her children back so she can have a chance to be a mother again.

Thank you so much for your generous contribution to the ministry. Opening up Jonathan Home over a year ago took a big toll on Rainbow Family’s finance. But I praise God for friends like you to allow us to do Lords will and give helping hands and shelter to the domestic violence and human trafficking victim and other struggles in life for mothers and children here in  California and Las Vegas. I need your help more than ever before to maintain what the Lord has blessed us with.

1 Peter 2:9
But you are a chosen people, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, a people belonging to God, that you may declare the praises of him who called you out of darkness into his wonderful light.

I want to thank you from bottom of my heart for your prayers and generosity.
I pray for God’s rich blessings upon you and yours.

Because He lives,

Liz Lee, Director of RFM
