If there's one word to describe our last Christmas time, that word is: GRACE

(AND THE WHOLE YEAR OF 2019 WAS AMAZING!!!)

God answered our prayers that we called for His help during each LOVE’s devotion time in the morning.

In Christmas 2019, He indeed helped L.O.V.E to bring many blessed gifts and extra helps to many people.

STUDENT HOUSES – OUR VISION for GOD’s KINGDOM - FUTURE of GOD's CHURCH

 In December, known as the month of Christmas, L.O.V.E decided to give Christmas trees as Christmas gifts and a little extra money for a Christmas meal to our 10 student homes. Several of our student houses invited unbelieving students from their colleges and universities to their houses where they celebrated the real meaning of Christmas, the birth of Christ, and introduced Him to their friends and then treat them to a special Christmas meal cooked by their hands. Some of LOVE's staff also attended the nights.

L.O.V.E and the sponsor funds paid the expenses, the students and Jesus did the rest.

 Elizabeth, Esther, Rachel and Jacob houses.

Many many unbelieve-friends have chance to sit around together…

In previous years, some student house used tinsels to make a “Christmas-tree” in the wall and decorated on it. But this year, all student houses have real new Christmas trees. 

Colorful and delicious foods – made by student hands ^^

We are so grateful.

CHRISMAS GIFTs FOR THE CHILDREN

 “ Thank You for your gifts and some new games. We were happy. Will you come to us next year?”

About 80 children gathered together in the small porch of the church to play mini games  

Girls are always enraptured to see and to receive baby dolls.

"WOW, HOW BLISSFUL TO GET SUCH WONDERFUL GIFTS!”
