We praise God for a safe arrival and a good start to our sixth term of ministry in Taiwan. Some highlights of our first few days include:
1. A Warm Welcome
Albert and Elaine were at the church (our house) to welcome us when we arrived. We anticipate that in the next two months we will be looking for a new place to rent and moving so that Pastor Lee can live at the church. Thanks for praying for God to guide our search!
2. A Baptism
It was exciting that PeiJiao has recently deepened her faith commitment and declared it by being baptized. Her husband Jordan not only had some words of encouragement for her, but also sang a song about never turning back on her commitment. This couple and their two daughters will be moving to Taipei in mid-June. We will miss them but are honoured that God chose our church to have been a part of her becoming a child of God. Please pray that God will help them to grow in faith as they establish a Christian home in Taipei.
3. A Crowd
The church building was almost full as we gathered for worship and to witness Peijiao’s baptism. Many of the people have started attending in the past year. Some are exploring the Christian faith and others seem to have made the first steps of commitment. Please pray that God will continue to grow their faith and add more people to the church He is starting in Baozhong.
