Christmas Celebration
We will have a different approach this year to celebrate Christmas. We will have a joint (Cantonese and English congregation) event on December 23 (Friday). We start the evening with having a potluck dinner at 7:00pm. Please bring a dish or two to share with others. After dinner, we will celebrate with singing and close with drawing gifts. You are encouraged to invite your friends to come to join us in this casual event.
We will also have Joint Christmas Worship on Sunday. Pastor Jonathan will lead us in this special celebration. Afterward, at 3pm, we will have a baptismal service at Pastor Larry’s home. You are invited to attend all the events.
New Year is coming!
As this year is coming to an end, what kind of plans do you have for next year? Is there anything you would like to equip yourself so as to be useful to the Master? There is one thing we would like to encourage you to consider, that is to join us as “prayer warriors.” We will roll out a plan to have you sign up to pray for the church. We are hoping that there will be family members of the church praying for God’s kingdom every waking hour of the day.

Short-term Missions!
During our Joint worship on December 2nd, we will be sending a team of five from our church to Cambodia for three weeks of Short-term Mission. They will broad on Dec. 16 and will return on Jan. 7. Sam Cheng, Meng Chhun (leader), Alex Chow, Ivan Lee, and Joanne Wu thank God for the opportunity, the church for the support, and the individuals who made financial and prayer commitment. May the Holy Spirit accompany them and give them grace to adapt to the weather and the workload.
We hear from the two sisters, Helen and Susan, who are working in China from time to time. Both of them are doing fine and adjusting to the changing weather. Both of them are saying that it’s getting cold there. Please continue to pray for them.
Mike Ling is returning to the Bay area after a year of Missions in Arkansas. Please pray that he can find a job soon.

Invitation
Christmas is Approaching. We have two different Christmas Celebrations at church this year: On 22nd (Friday), the English Congregation will present a play entitled "A Broken Trophy" and on 23rd (Saturday), the Chinese Congregation will present a different play entitled "Who?" Both Celebrations will begin at 7:30pm
We will have a Baptismal Service on 24th (Sunday) afternoon at 3pm at Pastor Larry’s home.
Theme for Next Year
The church has adopted a direction for next year. We will be putting our focus on Evangelism–not so much on training believers to be Fishers of Men, but on the "Men" instead. The theme "Cast the Net" is chosen to remind Christians to feed the Gospel to the seekers so that they may be saved through faith.

Sunday School Faire
This year we will have a special Sunday School Faire on August 10, immediately following Chinese worship. There will be BBQ and games. The purpose for this special event is to promote various Sunday school classes to the congregations, and it will be re-enforced through preaching on that day as well. We extend a warm welcome to all of you, so that you may meet all the department members and the teachers. Let’s have a blast!
Building Project Updates
The steel workers are back to work on site. It seems the works are slow in coming, and the Building Project Committee has been working with the General Constructor to push the project forward as much as they can. Hopefully, by the end of August, the roof will be completed.
In the meantime, we are still working to obtain a letter from the school district for submittal to a Conditional Use Permit to retain the current multi-purpose building. For an unknown reason, the person-in-charge hasn’t been able to draft the letter. The Committee is also investigating on a back-up plan for off-site parking. Instead of having over 100 parking spaces, the alternative site only has fifty-six spaces.
Please do continue to pray for the different progresses for the building.
