Taiwan – Hidden in Plain Sight Ministry

A Visiting Speaker

Through the miracle of time travel, we were privileged to have a guest speaker at church today. (photo) It was a friend of the Apostle Paul telling us the story of how the gospel first arrived in Philippi.

He reminded us to be a believer who prays (like Lydia), a believer with authority (like Paul) and a believer full of praise (like Paul and Silas).

This sermon precedes a series looking at the book of Philippians. It will continue through until the end of the year. Please pray for Lorne as he prepares for the weeks when he will share during this new sermon series.

News and Prayer Items

  • Albert and Elaine Lu (with Elise, Liana, and Nathaniel) arrived back in Taiwan this past Friday.  It is good to see them again after a whole year of being apart.  Please pray that they will be able to get the necessities of life (phone service, internet, etc.) arranged quickly and will be able to find a house to move into before the end of July.
  • Chinh and Lieu Truong have applied for additional documents necessary for their visa application.  This is delaying their travel to Taiwan.   Please pray that this can be resolved quickly.
  • Please pray for the preparations for the Elementary Summer Camp (July 23-25).  A short-term team of 13 people will be coming from Taipei to assist with the camp.
  • The English Conversation Club will watch a movie on July 14.  Parents have been invited to join the junior high school students for that day.
  • A joint Missions Conference for the three Alliance churches in our area will be held on July 15.  Missionaries sent by Taiwan to the Middle East will be sharing.  The missionaries will also participate in other activities at our church.  Please pray that God will use this to create a burden for evangelism and for worldwide ministry.
