update summer 2011
Wow, three months has passed for my home assignment year. These pass three months were full of conferences, HAMS, summer camp, personal retreat for refreshment, and trips. It was great seeing friends, high school friends, and meeting new friends. I was also encouraged by a few younger brothers and sisters expressing their call to go into the missions.
I thank God for all of you who had been patient with my adjusting life back in San Francisco and so many of you had shown your love and care for me. Life seems to begin to settle and finally feel like I’m back!
Now, apart from resting, I am preparing for sharing in different churches, enrolling in a counseling class which I think is much needed for ministry, spending time with my parents, calling up people whom I had lost contact in the past few years, and joining the after school ministry in my home church.
Once again, thank you for your continuous support and prayers.
Please continue to pray for the people in Taiwan that they will be freed from the bondage of idol and ancestor worship, and come to know Christ.
Please pray for my preparation and sharing so that people will have a better sense of what the spiritual situation is like in Taiwan.
Please pray for my parents’ salvation. Pray that they would accept Christ this year.

心底裏的期待
心底裏的期待, 期待他們,還有她跟她的家人能早日信主, 也有她的和她的和她的...讓我們一起來敬拜讚美, 一起來過生活, 是那失去已久的家園嗎? 那已不能再重現的家園是怎樣的? 到底是像森林還是像花園? 可能比較像森林,因為也有很多不同的野獸在其中. 不過, 還有很多花呢? 一片又一片的花圃草地.哇,那是多麼的美呀!唔,應該是怎樣的呢? 兩者皆是?! 怎麼會從寫人變成家園呢? 難道心底的期待其實是那永不朽壞的家園? 沒有哭泣,沒有煩惱,沒有生病,只有幸福,只有歡笑. 碧玉牆,玻璃海,珍珠門...然而,這一切又怎能與祢相比? 祢的美祢的善祢的榮耀...讓我再想像一下, 我不懂怎麼用言語來表達...心底的空隙就讓祢來填滿吧!

Update 12 2010
A kid who just started coming to our children’s gathering on Saturday asked me on 12/25 if there will be a Santa Claus. I answered “no”. She immediately said, “Today is Christmas and there should be a Santa Claus.” It is common in Taiwan that many kids only know and think that Santa Claus is the reason for Christmas. Thank God that this Christmas, all the churches, total seven join together for an evangelistic outreach for two nights. It was on Friday and Saturday nights outdoor. Even though it was very cold, many people came and many, mostly teenagers or younger, came forward at the end. Please pray for the follow-up.
Qidu is a place full of temples and with cultures that people worship idols and ancestors every day. Praise God that through several different means that we get to know some of the people in the community. Every Tuesday afternoon, we have a beading class and many ladies came and new people kept coming even though some stopped coming because of work. For the past year, we kept visiting these ladies at their homes and telling them about Jesus. However, sometimes it is discouraging because they have not yet wanting to receive Jesus Christ. Why so hard? One of the reasons is because most of them do ancestor worship. They believe that if they do not worship their ancestors, they will be cursed. The oldest son is the one who inherit the responsibility to worship ancestor, but the wife is the main person who handles all the worship. So, it takes a lot of courage for the wife to “rebel” against her husband to accept Christ. Please pray that God will raise up brothers to reach out to these husbands.
Every Wednesday afternoon, we have an art class for elementary school students. We share with them bible stories during the first 20 minutes of class. Again, these children do not have the freedom to come to church on Sunday because of their families. Their parents would not let them to come even if these children want to know more about Jesus. However, praise God that a few of these children started to come to our children’s gathering every Saturday two months ago. Please pray that these children will change their behavior because of Jesus and their parents will see their changes and realize that Jesus is the Only one true God.
In addition to reaching out to ladies and children in the community, we have a few ladies, youth, and children who have been coming to Qidu Gospel Center for the past four to five years. Please pray that these people will see Jesus Christ as the Lord of their lives, not just a small part of their lives. The youth and children are mostly from dysfunctional families and thus have not received love in their families. Most of them have very low self-esteem and could not see the future in their lives. Praise God that recently I see changes in these children that one of them is wanting to be a missionary in the future and the other wanting to be a pastor. Pray for the youth and children that they continue to grow in Christ and really see God’s love and that each one of them is precious in God’s eyes.
We praise God that for the past few months a lady came and has been fervently seeking God. She had a hard life and realized that God has been calling her through her aunt and other people. Praise God that she was baptized this Christmas and pray for her growth.
Thank you again for your support and prayers for all these people. They really need God. We continuously ask God to have mercy on them and take away the veil on the eyes so that they can see God is the Only One true God.
