A Heart of Gratitude
On this Canadian Thanksgiving Day, we want to pause and give thanks:
- Thank-you for praying (Persistence in prayer is an extra special grace we receive!)
- Thank-you for speaking words of encouragement
- Thank-you for generosity in supporting the efforts to proclaim Christ
- Thank-you for sharing your lives with us as we share ours with you
- Thank-you for partnering with us no matter whether we share victories, struggles, and even when we have nothing new to share.
From this past week, we are thankful for:
- Good communication at Monday and Tuesday’s meetings
- The opportunity to read the Bible with people and talk about the meaning of what we have read
- Freedoms that we have in Taiwan, as it celebrated its national day (Oct. 10)
- Visitors from the community at church yesterday morning
Praise and Prayer
- Please pray for the recovery of the son of a church member . He was recently hospitalized. Pray that God will use this time to soften his heart toward Jesus.
- We are inviting individual families from the church to have a meal with us so that we become better acquainted.
- Pastor Joshua shared today about adjustments in the church meeting schedule. Starting next year we will eat lunch together weekly after the Sunday service and there will be opportunity to stay to watch a movie, do Bible study, Couples’ Fellowship, etc.
- Plans are being made for a Christmas outreach on Dec. 14.
