Dear [FIRSTNAME],
Entering the Electronic Era:
from mailing newsletters to emailing newsletters.
Thank you very much for your years of supporting our work in China! We are glad to have shared the same passion with you for the past 40 years. That is, assisting the Chinese churches to preach the gospel around China, enabling the Church to grow and our God’s name will be magnified!
Today, China’s economy is growing rapidly and people are becoming more computer literate. Therefore, more and more people are communicating via the internet. In order to keep you posted with the latest news from China and of the Chinese churches efficiently, we will no longer send you newsletters by post, but through the internet (starting from 2011). We wish to reduce our mail costs so we can better serve China with your love offerings.
We have also opened accounts on several popular internet sites, such as Wordpress (used for our website), Facebook and YouTube. We wish to keep in touch with you so we can continue to help and pray for China and the Chinese churches.
Note: If it is more convenient for you to receive news from us via the post, simply contact us and we will mail you our newsletter.
Whether you prefer hearing from us through mail or through the internet, please kindly reply to us by 31st December, 2010. You may reply via fax, email or post, with your preference selected on the back of the envelope used to mail this newsletter. We do not wish to lose contact with you.
May God bless you!

親愛的弟兄姊妹：
進入電子化時代：從郵寄通訊至電郵通訊
非常感謝您多年來支持我們在中國的工作！我們很慶幸在過去四十年能夠與您擁有共同的心志，支援中國教會向更多的中國人傳福音，使教會越發興旺，主的名越發被傳揚開去！
今天，中國無論在經濟或民生上都正在急速地發展中。為了令大家可以更快捷有效地得到有關中國及中國教會的最新資訊，我們會由2011年起把我們的事工通訊「中國的挑戰」全面電子化。我們不會再定期郵寄通訊，改為透過電郵將第一手資訊傳送給您。藉此希望減少郵寄通訊上的開支及更符合環境保護原則，把資金更好地運用在服侍中國上。
我們也已經在Wordpress，Facebook及YouTube等社交及資訊網站開設戶口。期望與您保持聯絡，更密切地一起關心中國及支持中國教會！
註：若果上網對您不太方便，請通知我們，我們仍可以把通訊郵寄給您。
無論您喜歡電子或郵寄通訊，懇請您在2010年12月31日前，請填妥印在今期通訊背面的回應表格，連同封面上印有您的個人資料郵寄或傳真給我們，以確保我們仍可以跟您保持聯絡。
願神祝福您。
