U Matters - 28 May 2015

by Greg Anderson on May 29, 2015

Last Sunday I attended the good-bye party of a Union family moving from HK. It seems that just about everyone at the party was on their way out. I had the feeling I was at a graduation party where everyone was celebrating but me--and I had to repeat the grade again.

It is not easy to bid farewell to friends. This Sunday we do just that. Let's be praying for them as they continue the exciting journey of following Jesus to a new location.

This year we have seen enormous growth in the Sunday School, even though we lost our director. Ting, and now Jacklien recruited a great group of teachers. This Sunday we thank each person who allowed God to use them to help our children grow in faith.
