Model Student
The elementary school, where we teach and tell stories, chose their model student this past Thursday. The candidates were two sixth-grade boys.
All the students and all the teachers voted. In typical Taiwanese fashion, the votes were publicly counted and the tally was kept for all to see.
The chosen student’s name is forwarded to the county government. The list of model students is published, bringing honour and prestige to the student, his family, and the school. It was a difficult choice as both students display exemplary behaviour.
In Hebrews chapters 11 and 12, we read God’s honour roll. There is a list of biblical characters who are held up as examples of how to live life.
Please pray that we and those who are a part of God’s church in Taiwan would follow the example of those godly people. May we in this way bring glory to God’s name.
Praise and Prayer
- The Baozhong Alliance Church would like to offer interest classes for adults. Pastor Joshua has been networking to find a teacher for the class. Because he has been unable to find one to teach flower arranging, he will now look for someone who can teach baking and cooking. Please pray for God to guide him to a suitable instructor. The desire is for church members to develop friendship relationships with those in the community, providing opportunity to talk about spiritual matters.
- Some of our Alliance church pastors have health challenges. Please pray for God to provide them with health and strength.
