October Events

  It is now November in Asia. We arrived safely here in Lampung, Sumatra on October 29th. We were in the states for about eight weeks before heading back to Asia. While we were in the states, I was able to give reports at five congregations in four states.

  One of the places I was able to speak was at the World Mission Forum in Forest Park, GA (Atlanta). I was able to give an update on the work we are striving to do about Chinese people. It was also good to be around other missionaries from various countries around the world. Thanks to the elders at Forest Park for extending this invitation.

  While in the states, I continued my on-line lessons in English and Chinese. In addition to attending all of these classes, I also speak at the Subang Jaya, Malaysia class, preaching in Taiwan and Section 17, Malaysia every month. I am in the middle of my course on Exodus – Leviticus at Four Seas College – Chinese Department. We are thankful to be able to work with the Schertz congregation when we are in Texas. I take part in all of the activities there and also was able to teach one of the Wed. classes before we left for Asia.

Upcoming Trips

  Since our return to Asia, we will travel to Taiwan in December for about seventeen days to speak in three congregations. The annual lectureship will take place in Taichung – Dec. 5-7.

  We are scheduled to return to the states in January, 2026. One of the main things we will work on when we return to the states in January, 2026 will be to try to get Eta’s green card (permanent residence). If we can get her permanent residence, it will make our traveling easier. Right now, she can only be in the United States for six months in a calendar year. In order to make our overseas appointments, we usually stay three months in the USA and three months overseas.

  Please continue to pray for all of these efforts among the Chinese people in Southeast Asia.

***************

We continue to be thankful for all of your prayers and support as we strive to work among English and Chinese speaking people around the world.

It is because of your support that we are able to continue our work among the Chinese people in Asia and other parts of the world. We could not do it without you.

This is the time of year when congregations will decide their budgets for 2026. If you can include us in your budget, it would be a great help and blessing to us and the work. For a variety of reasons, we lose a few supporters every year, so we are always looking for faithful brethren interested in helping our work among the Chinese people.

September Events & Updates

  When we arrived in early September, we “hit the ground running.” I was in the midst of teaching three days a week at the Chinese school in Singapore, continuing to take part in all my regular classes and worship in Taiwan, Malaysia, and at Schertz.

  The third weekend in September, we made a weekend trip to Indiana to speak at Morgan St. in Martinsville and Clay City. While we were there, we were able to visit my brother and two sisters in law in Terre Haute.

It is now the month of October and we are still in the state of Texas for a few more weeks before heading back overseas.

  We are going to the Atlanta, Georgia area the weekend before we go back overseas to participate in the 53rd annual world mission forum at Forest Park, and to report to two congregations in Georgia and Tennessee.

  We are scheduled to depart the USA on October 24th. It is our plan to return to the USA on January 8th. We will visit Taiwan to teach in three congregations and a lectureship while there. More information will follow in the November report.

  Last month, I finished teaching the course on “The Preacher and His Work – Living the Christian Life. I had seventeen Chinese students to finish this course. Almost all of the students are from China. I taught this class for six hours a week.

Beginning on October 6th, I started teaching another course at Four Seas College – Chinese Dept. on the subject of Exodus – Leviticus. This will continue until the end of November. Once again, I have seventeen students taking this class.

Also, I am constantly preparing more material to use in my regular speaking appointments each month, both in English and Chinese.

  When we leave the USA on Oct. 24th, Jojo will be going back to Asia with us.

Upcoming Events

  Once we return to Asia, we will travel to Taiwan in December for about a half a month to speak in three congregations. The annual lectureship will take place in Taichung.

  One of the main things we will work on when we return to the states in January, 2026 will be to try to get Eta’s green card (permanent residence).

We continue to be thankful for all of your prayers and support as we strive to work among English and Chinese speaking people around the world.
