1. Baptism: Brother Zhang Xiquan, brother of our church member Minh Chuong, was baptized by Pastor Li on April 14th at the Milpitas Caring Centre, witnessed by his family, English church leaders Francis, Raymond, Pui Pui, and fellow member Minh. May the Lord protect Brother Zhang and grant him profound experience of God's love, and also grant his family strength and peace.

2.  College Care package: We are preparing to send care packages to college students. We encourage you to donate snacks, supplies, and sponsor postage. Please place the food at the designated location at the back. After worship on Sunday, April 26th, please join us at MPR for packing and prayer. 

3. Cambodia Short-Term Missions Team Fundraising Event: Thank you for your generous donations; we have already exceeded our fundraising goal. To continue the spirit of service of the short-term mission team, the craft sale and car wash after worship on Sunday, May 3rd will continue. We welcome your donations to support the short-term mission team.

4.  Church Front Yard Cleanup Day: Following the service on May 3, the church is seeking a large number of volunteers to help trim, remove, and clear away vines and bushes in the front yard to improve hygiene and safety on the church grounds. People of all ages are welcome to participate! If you are able to help, please bring your own tools (e.g., scissors, cutters, saws, shovels, electric shears, wheelbarrows, etc.). Please also bring your own mask, gloves, long-sleeved work clothes, and a hat. Please sign up at the registration table located outside the main sanctuary. For any inquiries, please contact Leo from the Facilities Department.

5. Arise Summer Retreat: The summer retreat will be held on August 7th–9th at Redwood Christian Park. The theme of this retreat is "Walking the Lord's Way, Doing the Lord's Work." Please submit your registration form outside the worship hall as soon as possible. The registration deadline is April 26th.

6. Prayer Experience Day: May's Prayer Experience Day features a "Mingan," a devotional tool used in medieval European churches, symbolizing the pilgrimage to Jerusalem. The "Bright Array" is similar to a maze; it appears winding and circuitous, but there is actually a clear path. Through walking, meditating, and praying within the Bright Array, one can reflect on life and purify the soul.

Date: May 23 (Saturday) 1:00-3:00 p.m.

Location: St. Anne’s Episcopal Church (2791 Driscoll Rd, Fremont). Registration is required outside the main hall. Participants must drive themselves to the venue.
