Earthquake in Sichuan, China

As you might have known that an disastrous earthquake hit Sichuan Province, tens of thousands of people died, more people lost their family. However, the tragedy unites all Chinese. I'm impressed by a Chinese undergraduate student at Rutgers, whose name is Changming Li. By far, 48 hours after we heard the bad news, he's already contacted Chinese Communist Youth League and got sponsored from AirChina, he will leave for Sichuan as a volunteer to help the people in two days. I'm glad to know he's a believer. I believe what he's doing is glorifying God. Hope more people will see God in him and know God through him. Let's pray for the people who suffered in the earthquake, and for all the people who're rescuing.

RCSSA sets up a website for people oversea to know more about the earthquake and rescuing : http://www.werunited.net/

Ethan

Dear friends,

Our brother Ethan, that we were talking about in our last Bible study has passed from this life and is now in the presence of God. We have peace knowing that the presence of God is the best place anybody can ever be. The Bible says that as believers, "We live by faith, not by sight. We are confident, I say, and would prefer to be away from the body and at home with the Lord." (2Corinthians 5:7,8). But it's still hard for his wife Anne and his children, so if you could take some time to pray for them, that would be really good. And if you are interested in getting updates from Anne, she said she will try to continue blogging. Here's what she wrote after he left..

We have a God who comforts those in need and defends the weak (as we sang so many times in one of our favorite songs, "Everlasting God") so we are confident that He will comfort Anne and their kids. But I know God can also use our prayers and words of encouragement.
