Typhoon Update
Typhoon Megi was a strong typhoon that did a fair amount of damage to buildings and crops. Above are a few of the photos that people sent us. There were widespread power outages, and some friends are still waiting to have their internet service reconnected.
We are all thankful that the new typhoon that formed is tracking further north and will not make landfall in Taiwan. We do commiserate with the Japanese who will experience this newest one.
Short-term Team Update
Everyone was thankful that the typhoons did not prevent the team from Toronto from arriving and departing Taiwan as planned. Everyone is safe.
We have heard a few stories of how the team had opportunity to witness and to pray with people at different times as they were prayer walking throughout the week. This included a man on the street who was lamenting that he had no peace in his life.
The first Family Relationships Discussion Seminar went well. Please pray that people will be willing to return for the next session, and even bring friends.
Family Time
We plan to be with all of our children and grandchildren for Thanksgiving. We are looking forward to having everyone in one place at the same time. Please pray for safety in travel. Beause of this, it is unlikely that we will be able to send an update next week.
Thank-you for being on mission with God: Everyone, Everywhere, All the time.

The C&MA in Canada uses the Global Advance Fund to support international workers like Lorne and Kathy-Lu. Donations to support the work in other ways are needed, but those cannot be used unless the living expenses are provided by the GAF. The reality is that we need both kinds of giving. Thank-you for your part in sharing the Gospel to all people groups before Jesus Returns.
