When we complete New Life Bible study classes or one-on-one discipleship Bible studies we have people share their testimonies during Sunday worship about how they are blessed or impacted by them. In order to help you share your testimonies well here are some guidelines.
Sharing testimony is bragging about God. It is bragging about God who has given us much grace. Therefore, it is a right thing to share testimony with others when God has given us much grace.
Your testimony should have three parts: your life before you took the class, how you have been blessed by the class and your life after the class. When you share about your life before the ...

As we are getting used to and enjoying our new facility, I am hearing from you and also noticing things on my own that require some explanation and need all of your cooperation. We can’t meet all needs, but we will do the best we can to serve you.
In regards to nursing roomsI would like to inform you that both the Prayer Room (Room #110) near the end of the long hall way between the Sanctuary and the Staff Offices and the Multipurpose Room (Room #202), which is being used for Sunday Morning Intercessory Prayer Meeting before worship, are available for nursing during worship since there should be no one there at that time. The Prayer Room will ...

Last Sunday was the first regular worship that we had in our new facility. Even though there were some technical difficulties that we encountered during worship I was very thankful for and amazed at all the new things that we have and get to enjoy. I was particularly touched when I saw all of you interacting with one another in the fellowship hall after worship. It will take some time for us to become familiarized and get settled in our new building. So, lets be patient with each other and learn to use it well.
In order to help all of us use the facility well as Gods good and faithful managers, I would like to remind you of some of the most basic ...

The building construction we began last spring is coming to a close and we are finally moving in and having our first worship service in the new facility next Sunday! It will be an important worship service for New Life because during the worship service not only will we dedicate our new building to the Lord but also celebrate New Life’s tenth anniversary as a congregation! I am very excited and thankful to God that we get to do these two events on the same day! Once again, God’s timing is amazing!
In order to help our building dedication/10th anniversary worship service become meaningful and memorable for everyone, the Leadership Team and the ...

It is almost a month since my wife, Lynette, underwent surgery and removed benign but extensive endometriosis. We both feel that her recovery process is going better than we anticipated and believe this is due to so much of your prayers that have been offered to our Heavenly Father. Thank you for all your fervent and effective prayers!
We are also overwhelmed with the incredible love and support you have shown us these past few weeks. Several of you in the medical field gave us enormous help and assurance with your expertise and facility. Many of you brought flowers and food to encourage and take care of us. Some of you came over to our place to ...

A couple of weeks ago after coming back from her annual physical check up, my wife shared with me that Linda Kim, her ObGyn, told her there is a big cyst in one of her ovaries. I didn’t think much of it then because Lynette didn’t sound too serious about it either. But this past Sunday I was approached by Linda and was told that the cyst is rather large (15cm x 10cm x 10cm), it is complex and it could be one of three things: endometrioma, or a mass that is benign or malignant. Regardless of what it is, it needs to be removed. I felt numb as I was listening to her and thought to myself, “Oh, no! This can’t be happening to my wife!”

From the Pastor’s Desk (123)
Over the past four or five years, we have tried house church rest month during the summer, typically in June or July. The main reason for this was because many New Life members responded positively and faithfully to the leadership’s challenge and encouragement to go on a short term summer mission trip. There were times when a third of New Life members were on mission trips, making house church gatherings difficult. Moreover, until Pastor Tae came on board as our Missions Pastor, house churches were encouraged to visit their missionaries. The house churches that followed through on this instruction found it very ...
