Dear Family and Friends,
“Now when Silas and Timothy arrived from Macedonia,Paul became wholly absorbed with proclaiming the word, testifying to the Jews that Jesus was the Christ.” Acts 18:5
Paul was able to totally give himself to proclaiming God’s Word about Jesus because he had people that supported him. Most likely, Silas & Timothy brought a gift with them from the brothers and sisters in Athens. Silas and Timothy may have worked some as well. This passage reminds us that God calls some to send and others to go. We praise God for all the people in God’s Kingdom that send and that go.
We are praising God for Saturday’s youth group. Their were four new students that came. Dillon & Peyton Farmer were able to share with the youth group a portion of their testimony including how having an adopted sister has made a difference in their lives. We praise God for the growth in the youth group and the opportunity for them to see the difference God’s love can make in a family.
Our Mother’s Day outreach is just a week away. We are still praying for 50 visitors. We have several confirmed, but we still have several open seats. Join us in praying that people like Ok & Susan Tzai will bring their daugther Vivian to the outreach.
The Farmers are already making an impression on people here in Taiwan. They look at our group and start asking questions, which provides for an opportunity to share of God’s endless love. They are going to have several opportunities to share with people this week about how God has given them the desire to adopt their two daughters. We are praying that they will make an impact on our congregation as well as our community.
Please continue to pray that all will go well with Mylee’s exit interview on the 14th of May. God has already helped them register their adoption, obtain Mylee’s passport, and get her exit visa health exam. PTL!
Thank you for your prayers.
God Bless,
John & Cheryl
