Baptism
We started the year with a baptismal service.
James, a high school student who has been attending the church with his family, proclaimed his faith in Christ by being baptized.
Will you pray that God will work convincing other people of their need to believe in Christ Jesus? How many more baptisms should we ask God to give our church in 2025?
(We also attended Peter’s baptism at the Chiayi Alliance Church on Dec. 31. It has been an exciting week!)
Happy New Year!
Thank-you for continuing to partner with us and pray for the growth of God’s kingdom in Taiwan.
2025 Building Fund Goal – $23,000
2025 is the second year of a five-year project to raise funds to help with the down-payment on a church facility owned by the church. Over the five years, our hope is to provide the church with CAD$100,000 to help them purchase a building.
Please pray that God will add more members to the church and provide them with a suitable facility. May God answer that prayer according to His perfect timing.
The link for on-line giving is: Baozhong Alliance Church Facility
(Note: The final figures for the donations to this fund last year are still being tabulated. We will inform you when they become available.)
Praise and Prayer
- Preparations for camp have been keeping Lorne busy. Please join us praying for the following:
- Safety for the team from Victoria that will be arriving January 18.
- That volunteers in Taiwan will work harmoniously with the team from Canada.
- For the 26 campers registered to understand who Jesus is and desire a relationship with Him.
- Please ask for wisdom when we deal with challenging situations. We want to extend compassion while helping the campers have a safe learning environment.
- Pray that God will help James to live the Christian life. He attends a school that is strongly influenced by the local traditional religion. It is not easy to be the only Christian in his class.
