May in Asia

  The month of May was another very busy one here in Asia. I continued all of my on-line sessions in English and Chinese during the month.

  On May 18th, Eta and I headed for Malaysia to begin our efforts among the brethren there until the 13th of June. We are currently in Malaysia at this writing.

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

FSC Chinese Class

  My current class began on April 13th on the subject of “Leadership in the Church” in Four Seas College – Chinese Dept. ends on June 2nd. Those classes were conducted on-line Monday, Wednesday, and Friday of every week. I had about seventeen students attending these classes.

  Again, I am thankful for the opportunity to teach Chinese students from China, Singapore, and Malaysia in the Chinese Department of Four Seas College.

  We thank you in advance for all of your help in our efforts. We continue to put our trust in God in all things. Please continue to pray for our work for the Lord.

Our Time in Malaysia

  We started out in our preaching and teaching in the English language at the Kota Kemuning congregation. I spoke there on Sunday morning for Bible class and worship, and also on Wednesday night for their Bible class. We enjoyed the fellowship of many brethren there, especially brother and sister Eng, and Alvin and Anabelle Lee.

All of the places I spoke on this trip were in the Kuala Lumpur area. The Chinese Asian Bible Lectureship will be conducted in Genting Highlands (about an hour from Kuala Lumpur) from June 8-10. I will report on that lectureship next month. We are looking forward to seeing brethren from Singapore, Malaysia, Taiwan, and China face to face.

My son, Samuel, was in Malaysia for a few days after we arrived. It was good to spend some time with him before he headed back to the states.

  Our next place to visit was the Friday night Bible class at Subang Jaya. Even though I was not scheduled to speak, Eta and I wanted to support the class that night.

  On the following Sunday, I spoke at the English Bible study and worship services for the Section 17 congregation. That evening, I spoke at the Section 17 Chinese congregation.

  At special request, I made and report and preached at the Cumming church, Cumming, GA from 9-11 PM, and 1 AM (Malaysia time). I was thankful to connect with that congregation and get to also speak with Steven Rogers, who handled the zoom connection for this. On Tuesday and Wednesday night of this week, I will take part in on-line classes in Chinese and English.

  I will continue talking about our Malaysia trip in the July issue of our Grubb Mission Report.

April in Asia

  The month of April has been a very busy one here in Indonesia. I continue all of my on-line sessions in English and Chinese, but now have added in person Indonesian Bible study and worship on Sunday. My son-in-law is able to translate for me, so I am trying to assist the congregation by doing some of the teaching in their Sunday Bible study and worship.

In addition, after many trips to the local immigration office, I was able to renew my visa for another year. After I get my new passport in 2025, I will apply for a five-year visa, so that we do not have to do it every year.

  On May 1st, I had the privilege to join the evangelism seminar conducted by the Subang Jaya congregation. Close to 100 joined the zoom seminar to listen to three speakers talk about work in Africa, East Malaysia, and Indonesia.

Planned Trip to Malaysia

  We have booked our tickets for our upcoming trip to Malaysia. We will depart Indonesia on May 18th and return on June 13th. While there, I will speak at the Kota Kemuning, Section 17, Subang Jaya, and Klang congregations. I will speak at the Section 17 and Subang Jaya Chinese worship services as well. While we are there, I will still be teaching my Four Seas College Chinese class until the first of June. We are looking forward to seeing brethren from Singapore, Malaysia, Taiwan, and China face to face. We solicit your prayers during this trip.

  The Chinese Asian Bible Lectureship will also be conducted in Malaysia, June 8-10. We are looking forward to meeting brethren from China, Taiwan, Malaysia, Singapore, and the United States for this effort.

   My son, Samuel, will be in Malaysia for a few days after we arrive. We are looking forward to spending time with him as well before he heads back to the states.
