Hi everyone!

It has been a while, and Jason and I miss you all.  We want to wish everyone the joy of the Lord, especially in the New Year.

I wanted to ask you to consider partnering with our own missionary to Paterson, Keith!!!  As you may know, Keith continues to deal with a great amount of physical burdens, and yet his greatest joy comes from serving on the Relief Bus. He has been hired as full-time staff, but he will be able to begin after he has raised a good portion of his budget.  Here are some notes:

1. Let's use this opportunity to expand God's kingdom because the Relief Bus brings life-changing impact!

2. Let's support our own member, because that is what the body of Christ is about.

3. Please consider donating monthly, even if it is a small amount.  It is better to support him with a continual relationship, and the website (https://donate.reliefbus.org/donate.aspx) makes it easy to do so.

Thank you and God bless you guys!!  When we raise enough for him to begin, we shall celebrate with a grand reunion!!! =D

Love,

Heesun and Jason

Share Forward Isaiah 58:9,10 "If you do away with the yoke of oppression, with the pointing finger and malicious talk, and if you spend yourselves in behalf of of the hungry and satisfy the needs of the oppressed, then you light will rise in the darkness, and your night will become like the noonday.  Merry Christmas friends and welcome to the first edition of my monthly New York City Relief Bus Newsletter.  If we haven't served together before, my name is Keith Cho and I've been serving at New York City Relief for just under three years and I'm currently raising support to transition to a full-time staff member as an outreach leader.  Serving at New York City Relief has been a life changing event for me and I love serving our brothers and sisters and making new friends week in and week out while helping to expand GOD's kingdom here on earth.  I thank GOD each day that HE uses me as a vessel to give hope to the hopeless, loving the person HE puts in front of me, listening to their story and having fellowship with our brothers and sisters because they matter.  It's not only a privilege, but I feel it's GOD's calling for me to be HIS hands and feet as a street servant to HIS children.   I can't say enough what a great honor and privilege it is to serve week in and week out along side such great people with a heart to serve!  On this night, 80 cups of soup and 150 cups of hot chocolate were served along with 40 hygiene kits and 50 much needed socks were given out.  Our friends were prayed for, ministered to and relationships were made and nurtured through LOVE.  Liquid Church, as always you guys Rock!  Thank you to all of the volunteers who come out and give your time and a special THANK YOU to everyone on my financial support team for their generosity and entrusting me with their finances.  None of this is possible without your support and willingness to show up!    THESE THINGS WE DO, THAT OTHERS MAY LIVE.    Another beautiful morning serving our brothers and sisters in East Harlem! This site has the most heroin addicted population, but GOD is continuing to break these chains and free his children.    This is our super awesome volunteer nurse Anne who works tirelessly to serve our brothers and sisters every Friday night at Penn Station in Newark. On this night, this we linked two of our friends to life saving detox and three people were referred to the hospital due to high blood pressure.  Praise the LORD!  Please pray for our friends as quite a few of them are diabetic.  Also, please pray for Anne that GOD will continue to bless her life in every way.            Please pray for my friend Juan who is street homeless and is saving up money to move into an apartment in Jersey City with his friend Richard.  Pray that GOD makes this a quick and smooth transition as he opens up this new chapter in his life.   New York City Relief will shut down for the holidays from December 23rd to January 1st and re-open on Friday January 2nd. Last outreach for this year will be Saturday December 20th.     Copyright © 2014 New York City Relief, All rights reserved.  December 2014 To donate to Team Cho please click the link https://donate.reliefbus.org/donate.aspx and choose staff member Keith Cho   To donate by mail, send a check to and designate "Team Cho" on the memo section: New York City Relief  295 Walnut St. Elizabeth, NJ 07201 Office: 800-736-2773 Cell: 201-815-7043 Fax: 908-352-6446 Website: www.newyorkcityrelief.org email: kc...@newyorkcityrelief.org facebook: http://facebook.com/keith.cho.37   unsubscribe from this list    update subscription preferences

Hi Heesun,

Thank you so much for forwarding my newsletter.  I appreciate it so much!  What  you wrote is perfect.  As far as I can tell it looks like you forwarded it to 64 emails.  It doesn't tell me more than that though since they were forwarded emails.   I'm confident that your efforts will yield some positive results.  Again, thank you so much for all your kind support and taking this journey with me.  I remember you stated that you've never served on the bus before.  Perhaps, you and Jason can come out some time and we can all serve together.  

I also hope you and Jason had a great Christmas and hope to see you at the New Year's Eve service.  I will continue to pray for your dissertation, Jason's business as well as your father's salvation.  

BTW: I got to see the doctor at BRMC and I have an appointment to see the surgeon this Wednesday!  I'm so glad I went back and argued my case again.  God placed some good people in my path today and I was able to catch the surgeon's scheduler in person and she was kind enough to fast track me so I don't have to wait.  Praise God!  

Many blessing,

Keith Cho

Hi Heesun,

Just FYI, it's imperative that anyone who wishes to join our support team on line know to designate any donations to me or put my name in the memo section if it is a check.  The website is pretty straightforward, but if anyone gives without designating a staff member, it will go straight to the agency and doesn't go to any staff member, which is awesome too if that is their intention.

Thank you again and I'll see you guys real soon.

Many blessings,

Keith Cho
