Emmanuel Bread of Life Christian Church
Location: S. El Monte, California
Pastor: Reverend Wei-Wei Du
Year started: 2007
Emmanuel Bread of Life Christian Church was built in 2007. God inspired Pastor Weiwei Du and her husband Pastor Joseph Sun to preach the gospel to families that have migrated to the United States as the tide of China's economic reform is blooming. Most of these new immigrant families from China have a special situation where many wife and children live in the United States, while the husband flies back and forth between China and America all year round. Couples’ long-term separation and the family being separated cause many problems. God moved pastor Du and Pastor Sun started a church in the Los Angeles area to serve the families in need as above. AS the time went by, God gave many wonderful grace among them. Through their church, God restored many broken families to reconcile, and heal many broken hearts, so the family and marriage is protected and become solid again, and many husbands turn to the Lord and become elite in their workplace of China. This group of brothers and sisters also built churches in China. They are in God’s hand and become the seven thousand who do not bow to Baal in this generation.
洛杉磯以馬內利靈糧堂于2007年建立。當時，神啟示杜蔚蔚牧師和其夫婿孫新民牧師，將福音傳給那些隨著中國經濟改革的大潮, 蜂擁移民來美國的中國家庭。這些中國新移民家庭大都存在著特殊的狀況，其中常有妻兒長期住在美國，而丈夫則常年兩地飛來飛去、成為空中飛人的情況。夫妻長期分居、家庭不能在一起居住，造成許多的問題。神感動杜牧師和孫牧師在洛杉磯地區開始牧養這樣一群有需要的人。隨著時間的推移，神賜下許多奇妙恩典。藉著教會，神親自使得一個個家庭從破碎中被堅固成全，一個個丈夫從罪中被主釋放，歸向主耶穌並成為職場精兵。這群被建造起來的弟兄姐妹，更在中國的大江南北開始建立神的教會，成為在這世代中神手中那七千個不向巴力屈膝的人。願神藉著他們的擺上，讓世人目睹神的同在，藉著他們建造的榮耀教會，能將從神而來的祝福，帶入更多的生命、家庭、族群，甚至全世界，讓一切因他們的努力而將神的愛彰顯。 願神繼續帶領他們前面的道路，保守他們各樣事工不斷成長，使他們成為傳福音和祝福人群的管道，而神的榮耀就透過教會彰顯出來。

Pray for the unity of the church, that the love of the Lord may fill the hearts of the brothers and sisters, helping us to love one another. May we see each other according to the measure of faith that the Lord has given, appreciating one another and being willing to support each other. May the truth of the Lord dwell in the hearts of all believers, with our lives becoming testimonies that inspire one another, and spreading the gospel as our shared mission.
