To the Master Builder — Jesus Christ,
who took every broken piece and made something eternal.
To those who have been shamed, silenced, or told they are not enough —
may this story remind you that the world’s rejection is never the end.
And to families who choose faith over fame, service over self,
may your quiet obedience change generations.
This is your story too.
— Edwin & Grace Ng, Daniel Cruz-Ng, and Judea Grace Ng
Epilogue: The Seeds Continue
Years passed.
The mango tree still bore fruit.
NewFrame Global continued to expand — not just in number, but in depth.
Daniel now mentored regional leaders across continents, with Judea often traveling beside him, no longer just a child of promise, but a voice of awakening for the next generation. She sang. She taught. She prophesied with gentleness and truth.
Edwin and Grace, though slowing down, were still seen often — on video calls with missionary teams, in chapel pews praying over new couples, or reading letters from children whose lives had been restored.
One day, a child approached Judea in Rwanda and said:
“I read about your family in our discipleship book. I want to build like that, too.”
Judea smiled, tears in her eyes.
“You already are.”
Because the work of the Master Builder is never finished.
He uses every willing hand.
Every broken life made whole.
Every ‘yes’ whispered through fear.
The world calls it legacy.
Heaven calls it obedience.
And still — the kingdom grows.
Back Cover Blurb
Bound by Blood, Held by Faith is the unforgettable true-to-life story of Edwin Ng, a boy born into rejection and hardship, and Grace Cruz, a woman marked by quiet resilience. Their paths crossed in a church Bible study — a connection sealed by a teenage blood compact and eventually tested by oceans, dreams, and decades of waiting.
Against all odds, Edwin rose from poverty and pain to become a successful cybersecurity engineer abroad. Grace, thriving in her own right, never let go of the love that first sparked in a youth prayer meeting. But their story was never just about romance — it was about a kingdom mission.
From their union came Daniel Cruz-Ng, a young man adopted in love and raised to lead a global movement called NewFrame, and their daughter Judea Grace Ng, whose purity of heart sparked underground revivals around the world.
This is a multigenerational story of love, healing, and the power of saying yes to God — not to build fame or fortune, but to extend His kingdom of restoration.
If you’ve ever wondered whether God can use your brokenness, this book answers with a resounding:
Yes. He already is.
