A Marathon Day of God's Glory..

Long time subscribers, today marked the final day of organised events and activity for the Taiwan Mission Team for 2010. This trip has been filled with tears, laughter, joy, remorse and compassion. The people of Yu-chih have reached out to all of us newcomers and past journey-men and provided a deep sense of gratification for their hospitality but most importantly demonstrating the power of God's love and blessings upon this town.

Today has been nothing short of a 'marathon'. We broke out in God's glory by conducting a 1.5 hr program for children (aged 5-10) at the local school. We had Lisa give her lovely testimony of how she came to know the Lord, acted two skits representing the Crucifixion of Jesus Christ and the parable of the unmerceful servant, sung hymns and christmas carols, played group games as well as an insight into the true meaning of Christmas.

This program was slightly tweeked and repeated in our afternoon program conducted at another local school. There is no doubt we have lost a significant amount of energy from the eventful-ness of the day but we have been humbled by God's righteousness and glory to push us through the times of discomfort.

Praise God for the following:

- For provided this opportunity to reach out to the People of Yu-chih

- For waking us up on time every morning to spend time with him through devotions

- For giving us the right mind and heart to serve him everyday

- For allowing us an enjoyable day of rest yesterday (details undisclosed)

- We've been kept safe and not led astray from temptations from Satan

Please pray for:

- Our remaining time to be dedicated to the church and people of Yu-chih

- Whole-hearted in our acts of service

- God to continue to work in Yu-chih

- The continued growth and rejuvenation of the youth and children of this church

- A safe journey back to Taipei and then onto Aussie-ville.

Thanks subscribers for following this blog.

Love and Peace out...

Your dark-skinned brother in Christ,
