The first Spiritual Birthday in AEC

Sept 29, 2009, we celebrated God's greatness in saving the first convert into our church (for the testimony, visit this link: http://vn4christ.blogspot.com/2009_10_01_archive.html) and this year, Sept 29, 2010, we celebrated Vy's spiritual birthday by God's faithfulness. Vy has gone through many persecutions and oppositions from her family. Till the point that his uncle tied her and hung her on the house pillar and fire the purify her because she left the family's worship to follow Christ. Under the rain, she ran out of the storehouse by the help of her cousin came to the bus station, catching the bus to attend the baptism of our church.
Her prayers are always for her family to be saved. She has a great passion for God and sensed the call to serve God in the future as a missionary.

Being good at accounting, she has been a great help for our church finances and all the detailed works. We enjoy having her in our cell group.

A surprised Birthday for Thuan Muc su

2 days before Thuan's birthday, I asked some of our youth if they wanted to surprise him. We came to the decision of making that at 00:01 am of his birthday, they would come to sing happy birthday to him. Agree! I then secretly cooked some food. Our sister bought the birthday cake, balloon and candles were well prepared. We sent messages back and forth to update if things were ready for them to come to our place. But guess what? Thuan did not go to bed until 11:55. It was not him at all! And when he came to bed, he did not sleep but kept talking to figure out what I would do for him tomorrow. I said we would date out and eat his favorite food. And since he did not sleep, I could not tell our youth to come in. As a result of that, they suffered beaten by mosquitoes and guess what? The neighbors' dogs started barking. And Thuan understood that some people must be outside.

**Without brushing his teeth, Kairos enjoyed the balloon in the morning after that. =)

Well, we had a great time to somehow surprise him and express our appreciation to him as a pastor, discipler, brother, and a friend to us.

Blessed Happy Birthday to you, Muc Su!
