“Acceptable 2019”, ANEW finds great “Acceptance”　from God as we pulled off a musical for the very first time! The cast and crew were thrilled to bits to celebrate the Purim through the musical. The team was indeed of all nations, including members from Indonesia, the Philippines, Australia, Japan and Hong Kong. English was not our first language and yet everyone willingly and happily put in their best. The Japanese brother didn’t expect to play a role. But as he did, he thoroughly enjoyed it! With only three rehearsals before the actual performance, everyone was largely thankful to be able to […]

Last Sunday, Pastor Joshua heartily announced the successful completion of phase four of “Zechariah Church Building Revival Project” and the official start of the fifth phase, a milestone of Church Building. The fifth phase mainly includes two parts: purchase and exploration of the “Garden Eden” in Cheung Chau, and the renovation of Yong Ya multimedia centre. The land purchased in Cheung Chau is over 160,000 sq. ft. Apart from agricultural use and rebuilding the existing licensed houses, we expect to apply for changing the usage of part of the land to build retreat site for cell groups, healing ministry and […]

MG Leader Cherry continued sharing about her discipleship: “I always pray for my disciples and cell members. When they do not want to listen to me, l pray for them. Some disciples and cell members are of broken lives and lowly backgrounds. I don’t know how to help them. In times to wage wars for them, to bless or intercede for them, or when their marriage is on the brink of breaking down, I always pray. God has given me a love that never gives up so that I always kneel before the Lord, weeping and crying out for them. […]

Sharing from MG leader Cherry Wong Pastor Joshua and C-Mo are my role models in discipleship. They regard every staff and each of their spiritual children good. Despite our lowly lives, they trust that we are good. Therefore, I learn to treat all my spiritual children the same way, believing that they are excellent, humble, gentle and kind. I love them and take them as my own biological children. We share jokes, play together and go on retreat to Taiwan and Korea. After retreats, my relationship with my disciples has deepened a lot. Out of my love for my disciples, […]

My name is Juliet Lu, a cell member of Jerylyn Baligod in ANEW. In the past, I was in deep fear and worries. At the age of 15, I was told that I did not have long to live. But by God’s Grace, He preserves my life. When I turned 17, I was working in Manila and met my Taiwanese ex-husband.I moved to Taiwan and we had some happy times, but that did not last long because my husband beat me up after he was drunk even when I was pregnant. After much struggle, we are divorced leaving my child […]

During Chinese New Year, Saturday and Sunday ANEW cell leaders seized the golden opportunity and spent time together in Shing Mun Reservoir, what a precious time it was to us. We laughed, delighting ourselves in the beautiful scenery as well as the Word of God. Reading Proverbs 1 together, we shared our life struggles, family needs, financial burdens and marriage issues. From the Living Word of God and the sweet fellowship, we receive insight and wisdom we desperately need. Hence, we are renewed in faith, strength, hope and love for one another. May God continue to grow us to be […]

After C-Mo’s 60th birthday on 26th Jan, the train of “Planting Trees of Life everywhere in 52 years” started. A team of 9 led by Pastor Joshua and C-Mo went to Australia.

I am Fevilyn Manuel , a disciple of Pastor Roxan Lapitan. Years ago, I accepted Jesus Christ and decided to follow Him. Having little faith in God to provide for my financial needs, I took a part-time job on Sundays in order to provide for myself and my family. In my heart, I knew that I should keep my day off holy to the Lord and also, it is illegal to work part- time. Yet, I was happy with the extra money I earned. Before long, I lost my peace as I feared my employer would find out what I was […]

The 144 leaders’ banquet and Joyful Mother’s 60th Birthday celebration was held at Regal Riverside Hotel, Shatin on Monday the 21st of Jan. It was themed “Shine through the generations” and attended by around 280 people, including 144 leaders, branch churches pastors and guests.

In March 2015 I came to Hong Kong. At first, I spent my Sundays wandering around and meeting new friends. One Sunday in July 2015, I was invited to 611 Sunday ANEW service and was greatly touched. Even though I was reluctant to come by myself, my cell leader kept encouraging me to come. Due to her persistent love and care, I was swayed into joining a cell group where I befriend other sisters and settle in this family. Later on I was baptized and attend equipping courses. As I root myself in ANEW, my life starts to change — […]
