English Version:One spring 63 years ago, a baby girl was born into a Christian family in Oklahoma, our Sister Karen. Sister Karen was taught the Pentecostal truth in her twenties. In the days that followed, God guided her to Asians, especially Chinese souls. She worked in a prison outreach in Southern California. Over the course of three years, Pastor Karen conducted nearly 2,000 Bible studies, baptizing dozens of people. At most, 16 people were baptized together in prison. Pastor Karen has also visited China three times, holding Bible classes, and visiting about 50 families each time. In 2003, God led Reverend Karen to establish the "Asia Rock Church" for Chinese speakers in Sacramento. And at the same time, she expanded the ministry into Los Angeles. There,10 people were baptized in the name of Jesus Christ, 7 of whom received the Holy Ghost.
Since 2018, Pastor Karen went to China and used her education to begin her service, organized Bible studies, and baptized thirsty souls in the name of Jesus Christ. Recently, she collapsed in a Shanghai hospital with a cancerous relapse. This time, malignant cancer has spread to her brain and back. The back tumor affects her nerves which causes her could not walk and her feet to swallow so big and her brain in severe pain. Therefore, she is not able to come back to the US for treatment. Because of the COVID pandemic, her family was unable to buy a ticket back to China. It is still searching for a ticket. Yet, our God remembered everything Pastor Karen had done for the country, and brothers and sisters from different churches in Shanghai were inspired to visit her, donate medical expenses, and work shifts day and night to take care of her at the hospital. Those brothers and sisters in Shanghai she has never met before, but their whole heartily love toward her is from God's love. Praise God!
Reverend Karen was committed to God's call all her life, without considering her personal needs. At present, the conservative treatment plan developed for her by Shanghai Central Hospital is expected to cost nearly 200,000 Yuan (about $30,000 dollars). We appeal to everyone who loves God, whether she has served you or not, please help us support her urgently in your prayer or in financially. Thank you please help her according to your willingness. God bless you all!
< Matthew 25:35-40 KJV>: 35 For I was an hungred, and ye gave me meat: I was thirsty, and ye gave me drink: I was a stranger, and ye took me in: 36 Naked, and ye clothed me: I was sick, and ye visited me: I was in prison, and ye came unto me.37 Then shall the righteous answer him, saying, Lord, when saw we thee an hungred, and fed thee? or thirsty, and gave thee drink? 38 When saw we thee a stranger, and took thee in? or naked, and clothed thee? 39 Or when saw we thee sick, or in prison, and came unto thee? 40 And the King shall answer and say unto them, Verily I say unto you, inasmuch as ye have done it unto one of the least of these my brethren, ye have done it unto me.
We give as we give unto the Lord. May God bless you and your family! Thank you so much for your generosity!
