Thanks for praying with us as we began teaching at Chaurtsuo Elementary last Friday.  The class was half students we knew and half that we met for the first time.  We have been given the responsibility to plan the two 50-minute classes.  There was even an opportunity to play badminton between the classes.  Pray that we will have wisdom as we select stories, vocabulary, and activities—choosing appropriately for their English and interest levels.

Lorne was able to contact one elected village chief last week and talk about future activities the church could sponsor in that village.  It will be discussed with his advisors and they will be back in touch if they are interested.  Please pray that God will open the doors of opportunity that He wants us to walk through.  Lorne will try to contact the elected chief of another village in the next few days to explore similar themes with him.

A few weeks ago we asked you to pray for the health challenges faced by Rev. Jordan Yang, vice-president of the Taiwan C&MA.  He recently had a treatment, and during the 3-month recovery period is taking a study sabbatical in Hong Kong.  Initial indications are that the treatment helped.  He will find out when he has the follow-up appointment with the specialist at the end of the three months.  Please continue to pray for his complete healing.

Thank-you for praying for Philip and Bethany as they searched for a new place to live.  They have found a suitable place that is in the desired area and is within their budget.  They plan to move at the end of the month.  Once again God has provided!
