Taiwan – Hidden in Plain Sight Ministry 

Thank-you for praying!

Thank-you for praying for the camp last week.

  • Almost 50 campers enrolled.  Both the campers and the short-term team bonded well and enjoyed themselves.
  • The typhoon did cause cancellation of the activities on Friday.  However we are happy to report that the storm was not as severe in the Baozhong area.  The people are safe.
  • Three local youth were permitted to help the leaders, giving opportunity to practice their English and hear the content of the camp.
  • Please pray for the church as they consider how to have ongoing impact on the campers and their families.

Please pray for Taitung

The typhoon unleashed its full intensity on the city of Taitung (located in southeast part of the island) and surrounding area.

  • Photos show store signs, pieces of buildings, and many trees littering the streets.  Please pray for the recovery efforts and for the Christians who will use this opportunity to serve those affected
  • The roof of the Taitung Alliance Church was damaged.
  • The government is using relief funds in various ways to provide temporary work and other kinds of assistance over the next few months.
  • Many homes and businesses have wind and water damage.
  • Three people are reported to have died and about 140 were injured by the storm.  Please pray for healing and for hearts to turn to the Healer for those who are hurting and recovering from significant losses.

Thank-you for being on mission with God, everywhere, all the time.

Lorne and Kathy-Lu
