"So that Christ may dwell in your hearts through faith - that you, being rooted and grounded in love, may have strength to comprehend with all the saints what is the breadth and length and height and depth and to know the love of Christ that surpasses knowledge, that you may be filled with all the fullness of God." Ephesians 3:17-19
Dear Friend!
Hello! I hope you have had an awesome 2012 and I bless you with
an even greater year in 2013! My 2013 is going to start with a
blast as God is sending me on missions this summer. Another
brother from ECF and I will be joining New Philadelphia Church in
Seoul, Korea to go to Borneo, Malaysia on missions from 4th
February – 11th February 2013. It is my joy to go on my second
mission trip with New Philadelphia Church and I am so
excited.
Borneo is the only island in the world which is divided into
three countries, Indonesia, Malaysia and Brunei. My team of 13
and I will be visiting communities with longhouses in the
northern part of the island to connect with the people, Bible
school students and Pastors of that area. We hope to share the
love of God with these people and encourage the Pastors in their
ministry.
After coming out of a year of learning about the power of God's
perfect love, I believe that by visiting the people and Pastors
of Borneo and sharing with them the Father's heart, God will set
people free to a new level of knowing how much -- the breadth and
length and height and depth -- God loves them. I believe that the
fire that we bring will not just flicker in that community as a
feeble flame but will catch alight so that the people will
continue to love God and one another.
Please join me and my team on this missions trip by supporting us
in prayer. Above all, this would be the greatest form of support
for me and my team. On the field, missionaries can feel the
prayers sown by their supporters and I believe it really
increases the grace that covers the team and ministry time. There
is great power in prayer as God hears every cry of our heart.
The team also appreciates financial support. Each member is
required to raise $850 to go towards covering some of the cost of
the mission. Please use this website to send through your
support.
If you would like to receive mission updates and prayer topics
throughout the duration of the mission, please let me know and I
will keep you updated through email. Otherwise you can join the
New Philadelphia Church Facebook page to see updates throughout
the trip.
Thank you so much for taking the time to read this letter.
God bless you
Lydia Kim
