Dear Past, Current, and Future Partners of the Gospel in Boston Chinatown:

By now, you should have received our November 2006 report that was sent to you recently. We urge you to read it carefully so that you may know better how to pray for us. It was our attempt to update you on our ministry, and we hope to be able to make it an annual report from now on.

We are extremely thankful to the Lord for His provision for our renovation project this year. Due to your generosity, several renovation grants and an interest-free loan, we only needed to spend $18,400 from our operational cash reserves to pay for the project, though this was not a small sum for ACCESS.

We now have twice as much space for our programs, but our occupancy expenses have also doubled, besides the repayment of the loan. This happened in a year very low in program grant revenue. As a result, we are expecting a $37,000 operating deficit in 2006 (in addition to the $18,400 spent for renovations). This has cut significantly into our operational cash reserves. With your help, we are hoping to drive this deficit down.

We appreciate your prayers, volunteer work and financial support, and know that we can count on you to make it possible for us to continue to serve Him well in Boston Chinatown. Do come and see what the Lord has prepared for us at our new site!

When we are getting ready to celebrate the birth of our Lord, who emigrated from Heaven to earth in order to build relationships with us, let us join together to be His hands extended to those He loves!

In His Service,

Mei Kee Wong
