Friday Night Bible Study Students

With Melvin, Sharon, Harry and Cindy. These four friends have been regular attenders at our Friday Night Bible Study. Cindy is already a Christian. Hopefully, the other three can make a decision to follow Jesus too. Pray that our Bible Studies will continue to reach out to students like these.

Studio Classroom TV Set

Liz is doing the new "Usage Tips" for Studio Classroom's 2006 TV program. She'll help students with useful as well as difficult language structures/phrases. For this, she does much of the explanations in Chinese. Here she is on the set during one of the recording sessions.

Amy's Visit to Taipei

Liz's youngest sister, Amy, recently visited us for a few days. Amy is currently a Ph.D. student in Political Science at Emory University in Atlanta. She brought along a friend, Kelly, who works at the Library Of Congress in Washington, D.C. Kelly is originally from Rural Hall, N.C. (near Winston-Salem). It was her first visit to Asia.

Studio Classroom Programs

This year Phil is one of the panelists on Studio Classroom's Advanced program that broadcasts throughout Taiwan, to China and other parts of the world. We hope to interest people with English and a variety of topics. And most importantly, we hope to touch their lives. Pray that Phil won't experience allergies or irritation to his voice. Taipei's air can be rather rough on one's throat.

Liz will continue to have a role on Studio Classroom's TV program. This year she'll be doing a new feature for TV - Usage (Grammar) Tips.

Friday Night Live 2006

We've started our 2006 Friday Night Live (FNL) Rallies and Bible Studies. At FNL, we have large group activities, singing and Christian talks followed by English Bible Study. We're now meeting at a newer, more central location in Taipei. It's held at the Home Of Christ Church pastored by Rev. Andrew Ko. Pastor Ko is well-known in Taiwan and often appears on Good TV , a Christian network here. Our goal at FNL is to help students with English and get them interested in the Bible and its message. We've had many students become Christians and join the church. Please keep this ministry in your prayers.

Liz and Rebecca

Liz has helped our front desk worker, Rebecca practice her English. Rebecca will often prepare and wait for these encounters. She recently made a decision to follow Jesus. However, her mother practices traditional Taiwanese religion and is resistant. Keep Rebecca in your prayers. We want to disciple her and get her involved in our Friday Night Bible Study. She is a student at Shi-Chien University (across the street) and hasn't been able to come to Bible Study so far because of classes on Friday night. She says that next semester she'll be free to join us.

Taipei's Ming-Luen High School

This semester I've been teaching at Ming-Luen High School in Taipei every Thursday morning. I'm starting to enjoy it a lot more. Here's a picture of the school and some of my students. Fortunately, I've been able to build a good relationship with them. And I hope to get some of them to attend our Friday Night Bible Study.
