You’ve Got Mail…from Abundant Life Newsletter!
Dear Abundant Life brothers and sisters, peace be with you!
上一次我們有“與主同行”系列,談“爭戰得勝之方”是去年的九月底,我想大家忘得差不多了。所以這個星期五,想和大家復習一下有關我們為什麼要爭戰,爭戰的對象,並如何爭戰等等。另外想和大家分享家父得救的故事,希望我的故事可以激勵你起來為你所愛的家人的靈魂爭戰。
盼望在豐盛團契中見到你,
曼文
It was late September last year when we discussed “Victory in Spiritual Battle” in the series of “Walk in God’s Ways”. It’s been a while so I assume that everyone probably forgot most of it! Therefore this Friday, I’d like to review the things on battling, the why, the who, the how, etc. I’d also like to share the story of my father’s salvation, and may my story encourage you to fight the spiritual battle for the family members you love.
Hope to see you in Abundant Life Fellowship,
Mannwen

| Prayer Requests | |||||
| 1. Last week, Brother Chaujun got a hospital-grade bed and chair with the help from his doctor. Now he is getting used to the bed and chair. Hopefully the adjustable bed will be beneficial to him. Brother Chaujun still has swallowing difficulty. He can’t speak clearly and has pain in his shoulders. Please continue to pray for God’s mercy and healing power upon Brother Chaujun and that the new medicine will be effective. Please also pray for his doctor appointment on Thursday as he meets and discusses with the doctor about his discomfort. 2. Grandma Jan (Jonathan’s grandmother) is extremely ill, and the doctors have issued the notice of critical illness. We are in urgent need of our brothers and sister’s prayers. Jonathan’s whole family is with her and taking care of her twenty-four seven, battling through this tough and distressing time. Pray that God’s great power be glorified here, and that their whole family hold strong in their faith and hope in God. Also, given that they have been very occupied and don’t have time to cook, they have been eating take-outs for several weeks. For those who are willing to cook for them, please sign up at Food for Jonathan’s Family, thank you! Please contact Jonathan if you have any questions. 3. Hank injured his right hand when he was skiing, but praise God that the surgery went well and Hank is safe. Please continue to pray for healing and recovery, that Hank will walk with the Lord through this difficult time, and make this accident a beautiful testimony. 4. Julianne is looking for a roommate. Given the time frame is a bit awkward, from February to September, it is difficult for her to find one. Please put this in your prayers, as we leave the search of the roommate in God’s hands, and give Julianne peace. | |||||
| Homework | |||||
| 1. We are called by God to be his children. What is God’s eternal will for us? What is the goal that Christians continue to press on toward? (Referring to Ephesians 1~3) 2. Spend a little time every day during this week, bring yourself to God, and ask Him to shed light on what you need to repent of. Write it down and share with your team members during discussion. (You can refer to Ephesians 4 and 5 if you do not know how to repent.) 3. Do you long for walking in God’s ways every day, win every spiritual battle, and stand firm when you are going through hardship? What are the practical actions that you can take to help you walk in God’s ways? (Referring to Ephesians 6) Bible references: Ephesians 1~6 | |||||
ALife Newsletter Delivered! 2/18/11
Dear Brothers and Sisters,
One early morning, my radio alarm clock went off blasting to this song:
“I lost my keeeeeeeeys in the great unknown! And call me pleeeaaase, cause I can’t find my phone!”
(Me: Silly radio, you don’t have keys or a phone!)
“This is the stuff that drives me crazy…”
(Me: You drive me crazy!)
“This is the stuff that’s getting to me lately. In the middle of my little mess, I forget how big I’m blessed.This is the stuff that gets under my skin, but I’ve gotta trust You know exactly what You’re doing. Might not be what I would choose, but this is the stuff You use.“
(Me: ……. Amen)
May we all remember how blessed we are, no matter how messy life gets! Please see both the Chinese and English newsletters below, and hope to see you Friday!

| 主題: 為什麼有這麼多不同的教派? 哪些教派是正當的? 1. 你如何在堅定自己信仰立場的同時，又能以一顆憐憫與慈愛的心對待與你意見不同的人？ 2. 為什麼人們往往把聖經裡清清楚楚的是非對錯變得模棱兩可，又把聖經裡沒有清楚說明的道理變得斬釘截鐵？這種態度代表了什麼心態？ | |||||

The Activities/Outreach/Mission group will kick off 2011 by volunteering at Capital Area Food Bank- DC Warehouse. Time: Feb 23 (Wed) 6:30-8:30 pm Basically what we do is to help pack food for the needy in CAFB’s warehouse. It is nothing complicated, so you could definitely give a loving helping hand. Due to complication, Jean could not register as a group, so, if interested, please follow these steps to register: (1) Go to http://volunteer.capitalareafoodbank.org/sys-php/hfh/sched/view.php 4. Interested in singing in a choir for Easter? For Easter, Jean has a song that she would love to share with the whole congregation. The song is called “Remember me”, and has lyrics in English/Taiwanese/Mandarin. She thought it would be great if A-life could come up with a special tiny choir with the help of Jospeh Chen (Taiwanese congregation choir’s conductor) as conductor. Tentative practice schedule would be Sunday afternoon (after lunch). If you are interested in joining, could you please let Jean know in person or by e-mail ASAP? Please also indicate your vocal range (Soprano/Alto/Tenor/Bass). A few people already expressed their interest, but the more the merrier. People from EM and Taiwanese congregation might join too! So, it’s not too late to contact Jean! 5. This Sunday, February 13, 2:00 – 3:30pm, the ALife leaders will be holding their first meeting of the year! Yay~ so excited! If you have suggestions or comments for this year, please let the leaders know! Thank you! Let us make our fellowship better together! | |||||
| Prayer Requests | |||||
| 1. Brother Chaujun went in for chemotherapy last Thursday, and had the side effects of dizziness and loss of appetite. Since he is having difficulty swallowing, Brother Chaujun needs food in liquid form. If you have recipes that mild, soft, or of thick soup, please email to Brother Chaujun, or email Sister Yujen so she can forward to Sister Jingmann. This will help her to create meals with more variations, and Brother Chaujun will hopefully have a better appetite. Thank you all for your continuous prayers and care. 2. Please pray for the 2/13 Co-workers meeting. May God guide our leaders’ hearts to make decisions for 2011 planning according to His ways. | |||||
