Friends

Hey everyone,

Hello.. HELLO!.. thought so.. everyone should sound asleep by now.. anyway i have been packing till the very end, now it is all sorted.. just like to share something with you all.. Personally and sincerely from my heart, thank you for everything, Jimmy, Chen, Derek, Christine, Grace, Timothy, Joanna, George, Max, Sunny, Michael, Shi Chen, Jessie.. and those of out town atm.. Esther and Tommy.. (i hope i didnt miss out anyone.. remind me if i did..)..

It has been a wonderful year, hasn't it? Well, i bet everyone have some sort of challenges that they may have face.. and hopefully, at the end of day through God's will.. everything turns up just fine.. it came across my mind when i was reminded about the testimonies for the church christmas magazine.. usually at this stage, i would think what i ought to be thankful for.. how did i survive this year.. the challenges, the joy, the fun, the sad, the great stuff.. all it comes down to "you guys and girls".. When i sat there among all of you.. being sneaky.. looked at each of you.. what i see is absolute emotional joy and really thankful..

Each of you are special in your ways.. i think the reason that Group 2 (literally speaking) is so awesome.. is that we have a great mix of personalities among us.. funny, cool, quiet, pretty, caring, lovely, cute.. (and goes on).. It is moments like this that it is hard to come by.. for those that may leave us, i think they feel the same way..

When we leave from being a student and into the workforce or other things.. we will miss these times.. it is definitely worth to cherish those around us.. However, saying so, Derek recently send me a txt, regarding that friends should remember each other, even without communicating or actually having the person physically there.. Interesting, isnt it? How does one remember another without being seen for so long.. Likewise.. isnt it much like how we know God is always there but we cant see Him.. Thus, even though we may not always be around each other.. as brothers and sister in Christ.. as friends.. we should always stand as one, supporting each other through prayers.. Even when we have limitations.. God already fulfilled what we lack in ourselves.. just believe in Him.

--Those that may leave..

George, you have been a great friend to me, and always will be. You are a strong minded person, when you put yourself into doing something, you can do a great job. Never lose hope and always put your hope where it is most worthy, God. I have to say, you have a very cool car. Go Trueno! Haha. Take care.

Christine, christine is a very interesting person.. cool, calm and collected in her own way, which is great.. yea! High five! Cheers! All the best in your future venture.. From afar i can see, there is a lot of good prospect waiting for ya.. haha! i guess you will feel ready when you are.. God has the best plan for you. A wine toast to Christine and her super great smile.. smiling is a blessing..

Joanna, someone i have great respect for.. it is rare and exceptional to see someone can speak their mind so literally and concise.. very intellectual, really caring, filled with joy.. which makes you a great teacher for children anywhere.. All the best in graduation, future work, relationships, life ahead.. surely God has His surprises, waiting for you to uncover.. having patience is a virtue. God bless you.

Sunny.. the sunshine.. also a strong minded and active person, who takes on every challenges like a true warrior.. direct and caring in her own way. There are definitely big goals out there for you.. you can definitely achieve them with God leading you all the way.. All the best in the mission trip fund.. believe in God that He will open a way.. or two or three.. there is always a way in Him.. take care and see you next year.

------

Derek, Jimmy, Chen, Michael, Grace, Timothy, Max, Shi Chen and Jessie.. i definitely see you guys next year.. Dont be too stress out over exams.. condensing 13 weeks studies into a 3 hour exams definitely has its toll on the mind and body. Rest and eat well. All the very best in your exams, holiday or working plans.. God bless you with all the peace, joy and love, my friends.

Over and out. Peace be with you all.

Emergency Prayer!!

Some of you may or may not have known 'Guo Qiang' (Group 3). He is quite new in the church, and currently he is facing a situation that really need us to pray for him and his family.

The recent news relates to the Buddhist monks creating an uproar in Rangoon, Burma (Guo qiang's hometown i think). There had been lots of protest and riots among the Burma militant's against the Buddhist monks and civilians. There has been reported lots of innocent people killed without mercy, among them was a Japanese reporter. Currently, Guo Qiang havent been in contact with his family for more than 1 week! His family has to stay home for their own safety or else they face danger. I believe Guo Qiang wish very much to be with his parents and 3 siblings, yet he cant help. He need prayers!

Lets pray to Our Father in Heaven for the safety of Guo Qiang's family, the peace among the Burmese so that the bloodshed would end and Guo Qiang's peace of mind.

Thank you from JoJo

Thank you for all your comments on my confession. They are so encouraging and touching and I read it with tears. I pray everyday that Jesus Christ shines on the darkness of my heart and purifies me. I know I am very disobedient and naughty daughter of God. But praise our Lord, He never gives up us. The process of transformation is unpleasant and uncomfortable, and I thank God that He granted me you guys, my dear sisters and brothers, and my other church families to support me. And I pray we all live together to be His living sacrifice.

For God, He promosed, " I will not forgive you! See, I have engraved you on the palms of my hands." (Isaiah 49:15-16)
For me, I want to say, " I will not forgive you! maybe you can't see, but I have engraved you on the tablet of my heart." (from Joanna's heart).

by the way, I encourage the boys in Group 2 to follow up Bo, the new friend, more. I don't feel very comfortable and confident in contacting him too often personally and i don't want to make any wrong impression. I will try my best to look after the girls. Sorry, but I am glad we are a team :) his cellphone is 0210613222

Pray for all the new friends
love,

JoJo

thank you letter

hello dear all

i had a good time with you in the afternoon.
thank you for the yummy food.
and jimmy is really an expert on games leading!

i am not good at express myself, but really wanna say thank you, so i rather write instead of talk to you face by face.

i feel sad about some ppl are leaving next year..don't like this time of the year... to imagine our group time without laugher from joanna, christine and sunny, or even george, really feel like missing something. Do you agree?

i wanna say "thank you" to all of you, i know you guys have being looking after me since beginning of the semester. it was my first time to be a group leader, i really don't know what to do and how to do. sorry about my bad leading skill, and i should care more about you guys. feeling guilty...

i wish you all have a great study period toward your exams,
to
christine: really nice meeting you, wish you will follow God's leading, to wherever He wants you to be. wish your family well, no matter in tw or nz.

nelson: you may not talk much, but everytime you spoke, many of us were touched. thank you for sharing with a honest heart, that's so important to us.

jimmy: i really think you are like a big brother, and you are the kind of brother i always wanted... pls be my brother in Christ~ ^^a... hehe... shy shy...

shi chen: your smile does suit the character "chen", so sunny! you may still have some questions about your belief, but i believe God will answer you in His way, and you will be so amazed! give yourself and God more opportunities, the gate is already opened for you.

annie: i did not have chance to talk to you, but i want to know you better. if you don't mind, we can hang out sometime, do not have to be in bible study time or church~ ^^, anywhere with good food is fine for me.

Photos from last gathering

GO,GO GO,Group 2

That was an awesome afternoon, thanks to all of you, my dearest brothers and sisters. Everyone turned up and prepared (bought) nice food, really delicious!!! Sigh, I have to go to gym to work hard next week. Thank God for leading each one of us in His way, giving us lots of lovely people around. We have all learned different tasks and experienced different things, so it was really nice to know what others have learned from God. God is always the same, God is faithful, God knows all..... How Great He Is, Right? Im sure our new friends have had a good time too, keep praying for them. Yeah, definitely we need to keep in touch, no matter where we will be and doing in 10 years time, always remember Group 2 and we have met in Christ. Thank Jimmy to open his flat for us to have this gathering, thank Derek for his wonderful music... Thank Nelson and George always be our "taxi" drivers... All the very best to everyone, working hard for exams and assignments. Keep wakling with God, He strengthens us, His grace is always sufficient.

Thank God, Thank Him for everything He has done for us. Praise the Lord!
Amen

Confession of Joanna

Here is my apology for all who heard my 'unwholesome' talk last night. After I said that, I regreted already, but my Sin tried to adjust itself with Holy Spirit on my way home. "I have just been cheeky and everyone sees it as a joke." There is no peace in my heart. My God knows me best. When I read the Bible before I went to sleep, He talked to me through Colossians 3:1-17. I had no excuse for my behaviour and no place to hide my sin. My words didn't build up each other and benefit you who heard it. I knew what I said was from my heart, So Proverbs 4 :23 will be the verse guides me in the following days.

I also apologize to Timothy for my rude behaviour in our Bible study group two weeks ago. It's terrible to see myself try to win the conversations and the Bible discussions by my "fine-sounding argument" (Colossians 2:4). I knew I was like a 'resounding gong' made the noise of my own wisdom. So I am sorry.

The last apology is for Jimmy and Derek. I covered myself with the spiritual garment of caring and helping others when I tried to satisfy my own worldly curiosity and habbit of being nosy. It's the Grace of God that He used me to help others before, but I took the God-granted experience as my own strengthen. I wanted to hear the praise from human and hear peolpe say I am useful, I wanted to be somebody and to see people follow me and agree with me and I thought I am somebody. But I am nobody. Now, it's not me live, but Christ Jesus lives in me instead. I knew all the knowledge, but my Sin is always trying to blind me and distract me. I am sorry Jimmy and Derek for my forceful interference in your privacy. I am soooo glad to see you guys are willing to seek God's will first rather than listen to earthly rubbish.

This is my confession to God and apologies to humans. These are my struggles and this is the real Joanna. Now I can feel a bit of the feeling when Paul wrote in Roman 7:24-"What a wretch man I am!" And I thank God that His grace is sufficient for me, for His power is made perfect in weakness. Amen.

Yea^^^yEA^^

Thank you guys, you are all awesome. Thank you grace. The cake is too nice, I still can remember the taste now. Thank you gOD, let me know all group 2 guys, they are so lovely, kind and peaceful. I will keep faithful walking on the light future in Christ.
One more thing, I had a very good quality sleep last night. Thank GoD agian, and thank my prayer partner(tim, shishi), also thank someone who prayed for me.

ps: I will make some nice food for all of you. ...

another short notice:
US government reduced the interest rate, US dollar depreciate and NZ dollar become stronger than ever.

Good morning guys, just a short notice as the title says.

The last event of the year, group 2".....

Hello~~

Its an addition post regarding to "The last event of the year, group 2"..... well as Grace have already said that this might be our last chance for everyone to meet up before we all shoot off to different parts of the world.

Therefore, it will be good if we can share something like,

Q1. What God has done to you so far this year (I know we still got few months to go before we say goodbye to 2007, man I'm just abt to get used to write the date as 07 instead of 06...now we are moving on to 08!!) or

Q2. What's your experience with God over the last few years (if 2007 is your final year in Dunedin) and What is your plan form now and onward? What do you see yourself in 10 years time?

Q3. What was one of the most memorable moment this year? (can be anything, funny/blonde moment, moment touched by God or embarrasses moment)

Q1 and Q2 is "either or" type....pick one of them and Q3 is a "must" for everyone!! :-)

Have a great week!!

The last event of the year, Group 2

Hi everyone, how are you doing? As you all know that this friday is our last bible study and most of us are going to start or have started exam preparations. We are going to have out last event on this sunday after church service at 1:00pm. I have planned to have a picnic at botany garden, everyone brings a dish whatever you like for lunch. Since Mooncake day is coming up soon, we really thank Maxis's mum, she will send us mooncakes(woo...) For people who cannot cook (Derek, Jimmy,Joanna..),you can just buy pissa or KFC from the shops next to church. We meet at church about 12:30 so we can walk there together. I have noticed that the weather report said it would be raining on sunday, so here is my special prayer request to everyone, pls pray for the weather on sunday. If it rains on sunday we will go to Jimmy's flat instead. I wish all of you can come as this may be the last chance we can all get together some of us will leave Dunedin this year. Could you please write a comment so I can see whos coming, or txt me I love recieving txt^^
Let me know asap if you have questions!! Thanks

Take care!

Grace

My Dear Prayer Buddies

Dear prayer buddies,

If you'd like to pray for me, please pray for me so that I have the will to become someone who pleases God, someone whom God likes me to be. You could also pray that God would lend me strength to endure His training, and may His authority and glory be held above all. Thanks.

Chen Shi, I like what you've typed. Have a week filled with the remembrance of God's mercy.

Jian-Chang, it must be very difficult working with children who don't flush the toilet. Have a week filled with gratitude towards God, for we do flush toilets, don't we! :)

-Timothy-

To Chen Z

to tommy

hi tommy, so glad to hear you again. we do miss you sometimes, especially me, because I will the oldest one when you left...haha, just kidding)
Congratulations, you got awesome job. kids are always noisy, they can play whole day without stop, but its alright, you can teach them how to control themselves. primary education is really important. Don't worry, god will guide you and we will pray for you.

tell you what, I am doing cleaning job for a primary school. they make messy everyday, lose everything while they are playing, clothes, shoes, bag, lunch box... most nasty job is in the toilet, they pee everywhere and never flush the toilet. I am so tired for this job everyday, lucky, do this job one more week then finish.
one suggest: you must teach kids to flush the toilet after they use.

God bless

good job

Thank ChenZ, Jimmy, Grace, Lisa and all who have worked on this activity! It was really great; nice game, well organized, lots of fun, and most important thing is to bring me back to eighteen. also thank god give us faith, strength and love each other. we will keep praying for the seed fellowship and new friends. Our group 2 becomes most wonderful team in Christ. If you guys need any help, we will give you a hand at first time.


God bless

Well Done, my dear brother!

I was really touched by someone in our group, I have seen how God's hands worked on him over the time. He did a good job as a group leader on Sunday, he has been a good carer of all his group members. I was really impressed when I saw him talking to new friends and having good relationships with them. I can deeply feel how God has changed him, how God has helped him. He was a really shy boy when I first met him, quiet... Now he can approach new friends easily and be quite talkative! I am so amazed and touched by God's work on him, encouraged me a lot. God can indeed change us, help us to be more like Him. When His Holy Spirit with us we are not afraid anymore, we can do the things we could not able to do before only because of Jesus!

This person is Nelson. Keep walking with God and growing in His love. Add oil, my dear brother! Give you lots of hugs.....^^

Grace:)

My Dearest Brothers & Sisters:
As far as I have heard, you all had good start with the prayer roster! Well done, everyone! Lets keep it up, up....I also noticed that some of you could not find out their prayer partners requests! Its ok, you can still pray for him/her, at this stage studies may be the main prayer request, and pray that God take care of him/her.... It will be good you can leave your prayer request here(blog), so we all can pray for you. But, please let me know if you cannot get in touch with your prayer partner. Thanks !!!

Here is your prayer partner of the new week ^^

Tim vs. George vs. Chen S
Chen Z vs. Grace
Derek vs. Joanna
Jimmy vs Christine
Nelson vs. Sunny
Michael vs. Jessie
Bo vs. Max

Other will be staying the same, same thing on same day! But for this week 10/40 window countries, we are going to pray for Thailand! We may all know that 93% of the population are Buddhists. It is really a land that is bondage to a complex web of culture, occult practices and Buddhism. Please pray that Thailand will really become " The Land of the Free"(this what Thailand means). Pray for a real spiritual breakthrough, releasing millions from their bondage to sin.

May you have strong faith in God, may He give you strength. His grace is always sufficient!

Love you always

Grace @_@

Thailand Mission Trip

Hey guys, nice to see you here. Please pray for my thailand mission trip. My first fund raising paryment due on next monday, but i haven't got much money yet. I really need to get the confirmation from God, to tell me this is the right thing i am doing.

I know when time goes by, my faith will be tested more frequently. I also know fund raising is hard job, but i don't want to give it up easily.

So please pray for me, ask God to show me it is the plan he made for me.


Cheers


Sunny

Thx God

Thanks GOD for the opportunity he has given us to have come here to pray together. Jesus said: “My peace I leave with you, my peace I give unto you”. He came to give us peace of heart which comes from loving. This place is a little sign of love ~

Dear JoJo, I understanding your feeling ~ Be strong ~ GOD will always with you~ I have prayed for your family, especially for your father's health, hope he will recover soon n I will continue praying for U ~

Jesus Is Above All!

My Dear Prayer Buddy

My dear prayer buddy, would you like to share your most recent grateful experience(s) with me?

If you would like to pray for me, please pray that God will continue to strengthen my faith because I have such little faith in Him...

Just to share some thoughts with my dear prayer buddy and those with a pure heart, please don't read too fast :)

The more we know (知道), the more we know we don't, hence the more we search (尋找); the more we don't know, the more we think we have realised (真實地知道了) everything, hence the more we stop searching.

"I know nothing but one thing, that is I know nothing...", a quote from Socrates in his late life. One of the most talented physicians/musicians in the history like Socrates admitted he knows nothing. Perhaps he reached the plateau after climbing the mountain to try and reach the stars but finally reassured something God has revealed to us at the beginning because of our naivety to trust the devil's temptation and started to doubt the nature of God's love. Socrates realised that he was nothing, I don't know whether or not he realised that God was everything, it would be a pity if he did not after spending his years under the sun.

We know what we found out, but we will never know or find out God if He didn't reveal Himself to us for us to realise, and we only start knowing something from nothing when we start knowing God. This is because of His mercy upon us.

I'm grateful, for with His great mercy, God has revealed Himself to us and offered us the opportunity to be with Him above the sun, as He has promised that those who search will find. Therefore, may all glories and praises be to the Lord, as He deserves much more than these.

P.S. You may send your prayer list to my email address, dear prayer buddy. :)

Have a fruitful week, everyone! :)

Hare mai

One thing has been encouraged me so much was that when I heard that Jimmy and Michael had the similiar thoughts of praying for our group as well. It reminded me Philippians 2:1-2. We are like-minded in Christ. Praise our Lord. and keep the good work, my dear bors and sisters.

love you all,

JoJo

Hi, everyone

Since I am bit older, I learned how to process this system slower than you guys. But thank God I finally got here :) It's my honour to pray for two of you this week--Jimmy and Shichen.

I got Jimmy's pray list, but not Shichen's one yet. So how can I find it out? need help here. I do need to update my technology skills, haha.

So can you please pay for my family? My Dad hurted his waist and Mum said that he can't even go to toilet by himself now. Mum is busy looking after Dad and coping with her work at the same time. I wish I can help them physically, but I CAN'T. So pray my Dad will recover soon.

And I got two assignments due on this Friday, It's about Maori culture teaching stuff. Plz pray I will be creative in doing my assignments and will hand them in on time.

The more you serve, the more you will be blessed. That's true, because I got Jimmy and shichen pray for me :) (I know many of us pray for all of our team. Thanks)

with love,

JoJo

About "The Seed Fellowship"...

Hello……

This is Chen (just like what Jimmy said *^^a...), hehe...hoo....
Some of you may have not known what "The Seed Fellowship" is.
Basically, it is a fellowship that aiming to share the gospel with Chinese students on campus.
We have our own prayer meeting every Monday, and also individual groups to reach out the students on campus during weekdays.
We have an event coming at Exercise Studio Room, Club&Socs( the room is still waiting for final confirmation ), on the 16th September, 2pm-5:30pm. The schedule of the event will be combined with ice-breaker, singing, group games.
Being able to share the gospel is our right and glory, for this purpose, we are willing to understand our friends' needs.
So the main purpose of the event is, initially, to build up a good relationship with the non-believers; Furthermore and most importantly, to share the good news with them.
You are welcome to join us on that day, please invite those who have not been to our church or bible study groups. Jimmy has so many ideas for games (*clap clap*), contact me for your confirmation(by 11th Sep) and further details.

Good day

Chen
