| The story of Yuezhu
While I was busy preparing lunch today, my husband lay paralyzed at home, unable to move. My house was a mess, and without peace. There was nothing I could do with three kids throwing things around the house.
Three years ago, the support of my family collapsed instantly when my husband became paralyzed into a vegetative state. I quit my job and concentrate on taking care of my husband at home. Every day, I am busy with all kinds of housework and my children. Thankfully, my relatives are willing to support us to meet the basic expenses of our family. In the past, I was so busy with my work that I neglected to teach my children, and now they are rebellious. Not only are they mischievous, they often don't do their homework and have become problematic students at school. Sadly, I am not well educated, so I do not know what to do with them. ----- ----- ----- In 2019, a Chinese primary school provided a list of students who needed study accompaniment to Abba Love Revival Center, one of our 7979 Holistic Care Stations. So, the church co-workers visited all the children on the list, and Yuezue's children happened to be in the list. During the visit, the church heard Yuezue’s desperate cry, therefore applied 7979 Manna Food Bank for her to help her family. The church got to know them better as and when they delivered Manna Food Bags to them. The church becomes Yuezue's spiritual support, and the relationship between the child and the church has gradually become closer.

| Don’t understand is not equivalent to naughty
Yuezhu's three children are nine-year-old Zhiwei (pseudonym), seven-year-old Ziting (pseudonym) and four-year-old Zhihong (pseudonym). The church saw that these children need adult’s company and guidance. When Companionship Class’s opening kept on delayed by the pandemic, the church still hopes that the children able to have companion and guidance in their study, so they decided to take Zhiwei to the church, in order for Pastor and Co-workers to teach him with his school work. In the journey of accompany, the church got to know Zhiwei better and found out that he was not such a disobedient "naughty boy" as others have said. Zhiwei just didn't understand a lot of things and didn’t know how to finish his homework. Later, when the pandemic situation in Sabah became severe, the Control Order was enforced again, Pastor ending up teaching children online through video conferencing software. Seeing the transformation of their brother, Ziting and Zhihong started to do their homework on their own initiative. They were also eager to attend church’s Companionship Class because there is always someone available to accompany, teach and encourage them. Pastor agreed to their request and offered to take them to Companionship Class whenever possible as long as they are obedient. This year, the three siblings became serious in their studies and always completed their school work on their own initiative. Even Ziting, she often WhatsApp pastor whenever she encounters difficulty in her homework. The children all appear to have some changes and grow up, the mother could see that, they have changed from naughty, trouble-making children into obedient children who will do their homework voluntarily. Yuezhu has no worries for them now and therefore could concentrate on taking care of her husband. | I'm glad to be able to chat with you
Yuezhu's paralyzed vegetative husband could only move his eyes. Every time when Pastor delivered Manna Food bag to them, he always prayed for him, he responded and even uttered some sound. At the same time, the church applied for him the Alpro Foundation's Metabolic Basic nutritional milk powder. After receiving adequate nutrition, Yuezhu's husband's complexion improved significantly, and his previous constipation problem was also alleviated. Yuezhu was very grateful for the sponsorship of nutritional milk powder because she has no income and cannot afford to buy formula milk powder. Yuezhu is very grateful for Manna Food Bank who provided food bags, that had taken away all her worries for food supplies; at the same time, the formula milk powder had also given her husband adequate nutrition, and lastly the children had become obedient and sensible. "Our relationship is like a family", the Pastor emphasized repeatedly, he felt relief and shared "The kids text us from time to time. Whenever we deliver Manna Food Bag, they always can't wait to see us, chat with us and share what they have experienced in the past two months." | The light at the end of the tunnel The ongoing Pandemic has undoubtedly made the situation worse for Yuezhu’s family. When Manna Food Bags delivery ended after one year of every two months 1 bag delivery, the church will file another application for her. In the face of danger, the church did not gave up on Yuezhu’s family, instead they have resolutely accompanied her family at this period of time, as if they were walking through the darkest tunnel together, believing that the light is at the end. Such assistance is not only external assistance, but also the greatest spiritual support. | 月珠的故事 我在忙着准备今天的午饭，丈夫因为瘫痪，躺在家中无法动弹。家里一片脏乱，毫无宁静。三个孩子把家中的东西丢来丢去，我简直无能为力。 三年前，丈夫瘫痪成植物人，家里生活的支柱瞬间坍塌。我辞去工作，在家专心照顾丈夫。每天，我为着各种家务事和孩子忙转，所幸有亲戚愿意资助，能应付家里基本的开销。 从前，我因忙于工作，忽略了教育孩子，以致孩子们现在性格叛逆。他们不只调皮捣蛋，也常常不做功课，在学校已成为问题学生。奈何自己接受的教育程度不高，对于管教孩子，我不知如何是好。 ----- ----- ----- 2019年，一间华文小学提供了一份需要陪读的学生名单给阿爸Love复兴中心7979全人关怀站。于是，教会同工探访这些孩子，月珠家的孩子也在名单上。在探访中，教会听到了月珠的故事，便为她申请7979吗哪食物银行，以此帮补家用。一次次派发吗哪食物包，教会与他们有了更深的认识。教会已成为月珠心灵上的扶持，孩子和教会的关系逐渐变得密切。  7月份的吗哪食物包 | 不明白不等于坏小孩 月珠的三个孩子，分别是9岁的志伟（化名）、7岁的子婷（化名）和4岁的志宏（化名）。 教会看见孩子需要大人的陪伴与教导。纵使因为疫情，陪读班迟迟未能开班。教会也希望孩子能得到陪读的机会，便决定带志伟到教会，由牧师和同工教导他写作业。 在陪读的过程中，教会更认识志伟这位孩子，也发现志伟不像别人口中所说的，是如此不听话的“坏小孩”。志伟只是不明白很多东西，不知怎样完成功课。后来，沙巴疫情严峻，再次执行行管令，牧师只能藉着视频会议软件，在线教导孩子。 子婷和志宏看到哥哥的转变，开始自动自发做功课。他们也渴望到教会的陪读班，因为有人关心陪伴、教导与鼓励他们。牧师答应他们的请求，并表示只要他们听话，以后有机会就带他们到教会的陪读班。 这一年，三兄妹变得认真学习，主动完成学校课业。子婷更常在功课上遇到不明白的地方时，主动以WhatsApp请教牧师。孩子们皆出现转变和成长，妈妈看到他们，从当初调皮、捣蛋变成会自动自发做作业，听话的好孩子。月珠为此无后顾之忧，可以专心照顾丈夫。 | 能与你们聊天，我很高兴 月珠那瘫痪成植物人的丈夫，只能转动双眼。每次派发吗哪包时，牧师为他祷告，他都有反应，甚至发出声音。同时教会为他申请Alpro大专基金会（Alpro Foundation）的Metabolic Basic营养奶粉。摄取充足营养后，月珠丈夫的气色明显改善，以往便秘的问题也得到缓解。月珠很感恩能获得营养奶粉的资助，因为自己没有收入，没有能力购买配方奶粉。 月珠很感恩，有吗哪食物银行供应食物包，使家人不愁吃喝；同时，配方奶粉让其丈夫摄取足够的营养，孩子也变得听话懂事。“我们的关系就好像是家人一样”，牧师一再强调，并常为此感到欣慰，“孩子们时不时发信息给我们。每次派发吗哪食物包，他们更是迫不及待地想见到我们，与我们聊天，分享他们这两个月所经历的事情。” | 穿过黑暗隧道，光明就在尽头 疫情反复不断，对月珠一家无疑是雪上加霜。为期一年，每两个月一次的吗哪食物包到了期限，教会依然为月珠提出第二次申请。危难当头，教会没有放弃月珠一家，毅然陪伴他们渡过这段日子，犹如一起穿过最黑暗的隧道，相信光明就在尽头。这样的援助，不单单是外在的援助，更成为精神上的最大支柱。
