December Mission Trip Completed in Taiwan (Continued)
On Dec. 2nd, Sam, Eta, and I headed for Taichung for our second stop in Taiwan. The next day, Stan Stockton, one of our elders at the Schertz church arrived in Taiwan. I went to meet him and bring him to Taichung.
Sam had returned to Taiwan for the first time in thirty-three years to sightsee and also to attend the Annual Taichung Lectureship. Stan came back to Taiwan for the first time in twenty-five years and would be delivering two lessons for the lectureship. I would translate for him.
Sam did a lot more sightseeing than the rest of us. Both Eta and I got sick in Taichung, so that curtailed some of our activities. But when the lectureship began, I was back to almost normal. Eta spent another day getting over her illness. We both visited the doctor to get medicine to help.
The lectureship began on Friday night with two lessons, then there were eight lessons on Saturday. One of those lessons was delivered by Stan with my translation. I also translated the PPT charts for both of his lessons.
On Sunday, Stan spoke and I translated for him. It was good to be back in Taichung. We had not been there in two years. On the Tuesday after the lectureship, Stan and Sam headed back to the states, while Eta and I headed for Hualien.
I spoke seven times in Hualien, which included a gospel meeting. We always enjoy our visits with the brethren in Hualien. Through the years, I have been there more than 50 times. We were able to have fellowship with the brethren and teach private Bible studies in addition to the lessons. Be sure to check out our pictures on my Facebook page.
We look forward to another Taiwan trip at the end of 2026.

Looking Ahead To 2026
We are scheduled to return to the states on January 8, 2026.
Please continue to pray for all of our efforts among the Chinese people in Southeast Asia, whether we are in Asia or the states.
***************
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. We are always looking for faithful brethren interested in helping our work among the Chinese people.
