Evaluations

Individual international workers do an annual “Yearly Review,” It is a time to pause and reflect on the progress being made toward certain goals.  Each person evaluates him or herself, and then discusses the result with a leader.  Our desire is that each individual worker remain healthy.

Sometimes a review is done of a whole field’s ministry.  The USA-sent team will be doing one of these strategic reviews at the end of the month.

Representatives from the Taiwan team will be joined by leaders from headquarters and by leaders from other fields in the region.  The Review Team will pause and remember some of the things God is doing.  It is an opportunity to look at needs and possible new ventures.  It is the time when strategy adjustments are sometimes made.

Although it is not a time when we will formally evaluate ministry being done by the international workers sent from Canada, we will be interviewed and we will see the results of the Review Team’s work.

Please pray for the process that our coworkers will be going through.  Pray that they will be encouraged by what God is doing and will sense God’s leading toward any potential new ventures.  Pray that there will continue to be good communication between the US and Canadian groups, and that we will work well together to share Jesus Christ with the Taiwanese working class people.

Praise and Prayer

  • Please continue to pray for the recovery of the son of a church member.  Pray that God will use this time to soften his heart toward Jesus.
  • Our plans to host church families in our home was delayed as Lorne recovers from a kidney stone attack.  We are thankful for medical care and lots of accessible drinking water.  The doctor gave the all clear message to us today. Praise the Lord!
