With sadness and gratitude, we say goodbye to our dear elder sister Zhang En-Chong. We grieve because we have lost a dear co-worker in the Lord, a faithful watchman, a prayer warrior that stayed watchful day and night. From her youth to old age, being filled with the spiritual burden, she unfailingly and unchangingly paid the price of prayers for the global revival of churches and their co-workers. We witnessed all of these with our own eyes. She left us with beautiful life examples and testimonies. We are very grateful because she has returned to the bosom of our Lord. She left behind the physical sufferings and pain to embrace the everlasting peace and rest! (more…)
In the city of Chicago, one cold, dark night, a blizzard was setting in. A little boy was selling newspapers on the corner, the people were in and out of the cold. The little boy was so cold that he wasn’t trying to sell many papers.

“The sorrow of those will increase who run after other gods”
I had been thirsty for my mother’s attention since I was a child. I desired to get all of her love. Therefore?I had been very jealous of my younger sister since she was born. When I was about 14 years old, I believed in Jesus Christ. But I still desired my mother’s love more than the love of Jesus. When I could not get enough attention from her, I would lose my temper and cry unreasonably. (more…)
“I urge, then, first of all, that requests, prayers, intercession and thanksgiving be made for everyone—for kings and all those in authority, that we may live peaceful and quiet lives in all godliness and holiness.

Mary’s Testimony of Psalm 16/4
REBORN
O how wide and long and high the love of Jesus Christ is! What love He came to search me, this dying and lost sheep. What a sinner I was! I worshiped idols, resisted the gospel, and loved darkness and hated light. (more…)
