Taiwan – Hidden in Plain Sight Ministry 

Could you hear the angels singing?

For our Palm Sunday worship we joined together with the Baozhong Gospel Center church.  We witnessed their church’s first baptism, a friend from the community.  We were able to not only worship together but also to share lunch together.  Please pray with us that God will continue to build His kingdom in Baozhong.

Church Mission Strategy Meetings

We were privileged to be a part of this year’s meetings with pastors from most churches in the Taiwan C&MA March 16=19.  This year there was training on how to faithfully manage church finances.  A retired Taiwanese pastor also shared stories and advice about having a pastoral heart in ministry even as we seek for God to add more people to the church.

Successful Surgery!

Thanks-you for praying for Lorne’s father as he had surgery.  The surgery went well.  He is now recovering at home until the implant can be connected. In about a month he will begin therapy to learn to hear with the new devices.

Planning

A lot of energy is going into planning for home assignment.  We are in final negotiations for a furnished townhouse in Abbotsford.  We are planning travel for General Assembly and other meetings that we will need to attend.  In Taiwan, we are beginning the process of transferring responsibilities to other people.  Please pray for wisdom and that this will all go smoothly.

Thank-you for your ongoing commitment to be on mission together with God and  us through prayer.

Lorne and Kathy-Lu
