6/4/05 Bible study - Rejoyce always, Pray unceasing, Thank God always

"Rejoyce always, Pray unceasing, Thank God always" was the theme throughout the evening.

Mike and Corinna lead the Bible study of 1 Corinthian 4:1-13 at Martina's mom's, reminding us to be faithful Christians and to humble ourselves to God's will. Mike and Corinna gave many fun testimonies and sharings relating to leading Bible study sessions, "Holy Spirit Perfume", and recent experience in home buying.

Theresa and Wendar lead the praising & worshiping, and Ken and Bob brought snacks. We had 22 adults and 5 kids at the gathering this time.

Dennis brought Shamson Wong from the Cantonese group. Shameson gave a sharing about his experience at the Holy Spirit convention last weekend. Corinna and others also shared their experience at different Charismatic gatherings. It was Grace's birthday, and we gave her the birthday blessings and may God be with her as she go to college in NY.

Lighthouse Bible Study group Bookmarks designed by Eugene, and made by Martina, Eugene, Theresa, and Thomas are distributed. Everyone is encouraged to take them and use them as tokens to invite people to join the Bible study.

5/14/05 Bible study - Apollo or Paul, whom do we belong?

Theresa and Martina lead a wonderful study of 1 Cor. Chapter 3, talking about the divisions within the Church.

By God's mysterious design, we have Fr. Larry visiting us. Fr. Larry "happens" to be working with the churches in China. The issue of underground church was a focus of the discussion, illustrating the teaching from the scripture of the day.

5/7/05 Lighthouse Group outing

Thanks to David's lead, we had a very special group outing in May with ice skating, dinner, and kareoke. We are happy that everyone came back in one piece and nobody lost their voice.

We also had some old friends and new friends at the gathering! Welcome Emmanuel Lange joining us from Paris, and welcome back Cindy!
