Suggestion from Sister Cerina:
Since the VBS at CCC (6/15-6/19) got canceled, certainly the original plan for 6/19/09 as outreach children with their parents got vanished as well. One alternative for your consideration, we could have a “Family Movie Night”. Find a good Christian movie put the post and give away fries invite neighbors come (door to door invitations). Church will provide free popcorn and icy water. Make it fun, such as ticket booth, make the tray for popcorn and drinks. What do you think?
王牧師的回應:
謝謝竹瑛姊妹服事主的心,我們相信這份感動是出於神,願神厚報。 然而,在我的禱告和領受當中,有一件事是更加迫在眉睫,就是領袖們的信心重建。
我建議舉辦一個教會領袖週末培靈營,比如說禮拜五晚上出發,禮拜六晚上回來。(6/19, 20 或6/26, 27) 由健健姊妹負責統籌營會的地點及安排。
Pastor Wang’s response:
I thank Sister Cerina’s serving heart. We trust Cerina’s serving heart is from the Holy Spirit’s touch. May our Lord bless her abundantly. However, in my prayer and receiving, there is one thing which is more urgent. That is to re-establish leaders’ faith.
I suggest to have a spiritual formation camp on the weekend. We may leave on Friday night and come back on Sat. night. (6/19, 20 or 6/26, 27) Sister Jian to be in charge of coordinating the location and details.

b) E-mail received on 6/1/09 from Mark with BGCT:
Thank you so much. I have been out of the office moving to Houston. I see now where I miss communicated on the phone the other day. I am so sorry for the confusion. BGCT will match dollar for dollar CCC total of $1200. So we will send you a check for $1200 which takes the total which Briant will receive to $2400.
