Submitted by Bishop Stephen Leung
On Christmas Day, at Good Shepherd (Vancouver, BC), Bishop Stephen Leung had the joy of confirming and baptizing three adults, who are new believers, as well as baptizing three children. Bishop Stephen writes, "These all come from three families and have come to faith in Christ through the outreach work to two of our ministries: Awana, a children's ministry, and Thank God it is Friday (TGIF), an adult outreach ministry. All three adult confirmation candidates will give their testimonies on Christmas Eve at the Candlelight Service at 8pm where the usual attendance is about 250-300. Please pray for these adults and children who will be baptized and for their families. Also please pray for others to respond to the Good News. There are still more than 20 non-Christian adults who come to TGIF each month and many children in the Awana ministry who need our Saviour." Please pray!
God is also at work in Good Shepherd's Taste of Life ministry to restaurant workers and chefs in Richmond, BC. (This ministry meets late at night after the restaurants close. You can read about it in a recent The Apostle magazine.) In early December, Bishop Stephen baptized and confirmed a middle-aged man. Bishop Stephen is praising God that this man, who comes from a very broken background, full of darkness, now by God's grace is born again and has been given new life in Christ.
