Praise and Prayer Request from Ron and Shelby
Dear mission partners,
We praise God for our DTC (Singapore) Reunion. 8 of us plus several friends stayed in a beautiful Campsite near the Lake Biwa, Nagahama City, Japan. By God’s grace, we all have been in Christian ministry for over 30 years.
We would like to request your prayers for the followings:
For Shelby with the second adult interdenominational Bible Studies on Wednesdays in Taichung City
For the families that receive food supplies from the Food Bank. Although government helps many poor, there are still many families in need
Continue to prayer for 350 Filipinos who made decisions to follow Christ during the Anniversary celebration of our partner church: Logos World Mission
For God to grant us travel mercy during our Home Service between October and December, as we visit six of our supporting churches in 4 cities
For our future assignment after we return to Taiwan from the Home Service
For guidance from God as we plan our retirement
Thank you for your faithful support and your prayers.
Ron and Shelby, Chiayi City, Taiwan
