Friday Morning in Taiwan
Update from Lary:
This is the wrap up day for both English camps - Bethel and Good News. We have Scott and Andy back with us today. Pray that all children will be able to comprehend the importance of Easter and what Jesus did for us at the cross, the significance of the empty tomb. Easter is the bible story focus for today. Pray that every child who has not made the most important decision in their life to accept Jesus will do so today. Doug, Robin, and I were the only ones who did not go to the Defense last night. We will go tonight. Scott commented that from beginning to end the performance was smooth, it clicked as well as it could. There are professional actors, I know the guy in the suicide scene Is a professional actor. I think we are going to hit a night market tonight as well. Pray that the power of the Holy Spirit will move in each child's heart, that they be set apart, that God would bless them indeed, that they would confess and repent of their sin, that God would enlarge their territory, that God would keep them from evil, so that they would not cause pain to God, themselves, or anyone else. Pray that God will use each one to bear much fruit for the the remainder of their days on earth.

Just a reminder, that the following are the people who went, so if you happen to see them on Sunday or before, you might want to ask them for some great stories of what God did during their time there!

Thank you so much for your prayers while the team was there! All the stories you heard and have yet to hear would not have been possible without you standing in the gap and interceding for them and the hearts of the Togolese people.
The Energizer Bunnies Just Keep Going in Taiwan
What a great week we have had so far! Pam and Don have almost 90 kids each day. 24 of them under 5 years of age. The other team spent two days building the Judgement House for the rest of the week. Wednesday we started the Good News Church VBS English camp. The first day we had 38 children. Very hot outside. Spent most of the day inside then outside for football and kickball. Lots of great worship. God is still protecting us and our families. Thanks!

Taiwan - Urgent Prayer Request
The following is from Lary:
"We need to have as many people as possible praying the scriptures contained in Romans 10:1-16. No explanation needed. Also keep the people working the Bethel church English camp in prayer today and through Friday: Don, Pam, Mike C., Scott, Andy, Gabe, Charis, and Daphne. Also the interpreters there as well: Jessie, WaWa, and an individual at this church. They really need it as well. And for Mike C. who is going to watch the youngest group of kids today."
Here is Romans 10:1-16:
Brothers and sisters, my heart’s desire and prayer to God for the Israelites is that they may be saved. 2 For I can testify about them that they are zealous for God, but their zeal is not based on knowledge. 3 Since they did not know the righteousness of God and sought to establish their own, they did not submit to God’s righteousness.4 Christ is the culmination of the law so that there may be righteousness for everyone who believes.
5 Moses writes this about the righteousness that is by the law: “The person who does these things will live by them.” 6 But the righteousness that is by faith says: “Do not say in your heart, ‘Who will ascend into heaven?’” (that is, to bring Christ down) 7 “or ‘Who will descend into the deep?’” (that is, to bring Christ up from the dead). 8 But what does it say? “The word is near you; it is in your mouth and in your heart,” that is, the message concerning faith that we proclaim: 9 If you declare with your mouth, “Jesus is Lord,” and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved. 10 For it is with your heart that you believe and are justified, and it is with your mouth that you profess your faith and are saved. 11 As Scripture says, “Anyone who believes in him will never be put to shame.” 12 For there is no difference between Jew and Gentile—the same Lord is Lord of all and richly blesses all who call on him, 13 for, “Everyone who calls on the name of the Lord will be saved.”
14 How, then, can they call on the one they have not believed in? And how can they believe in the one of whom they have not heard? And how can they hear without someone preaching to them? 15 And how can anyone preach unless they are sent? As it is written: “How beautiful are the feet of those who bring good news!”
16 But not all the Israelites accepted the good news. For Isaiah says, “Lord, who has believed our message?”
