Praise the Lord that Kathy-Lu and Lorne arrived safely in Canada.  We have rented a furnished apartment in Abbotsford.  Arrangements are still in progress for internet and phone hook-ups.  We want to thank all those who have prayed and have helped in practical ways.

Ethan has completed his semester of studies at the university in Abbotsford and is looking for employment.  Please pray for God to provide employment so that he can continue studies in September.

We are thankful for the wonderful care and support that Elyssa is receiving from friends in Taiwan.  Please pray for her as she makes course selection decisions for next year and completes this year of study.

Praise the Lord that we can stay in contact with you from our own home.  We are thankful that they were able to do the hook-ups so quickly.

Praise the Lord that some seekers have been attending the small group meetings in Sihhu on a regular basis.  Please pray that God will use the questions being asked to grow their faith.  There are others who have shown some interest but have not yet made the commitment to attend regularly.  Please pray that God will increase the desire in their hearts to know God.

Please pray for Lorne’s grandmother who is experiencing great discomfort from cancer sores.  She is a believer and is ready join her Saviour in heaven.  Please pray for relief from her suffering.

Please pray for God to empower our Taiwanese coworkers, helping them to work well with each other and with the missionaries working in the Western Yunlin church plant.  (Left to right:  Yuanfang, Sam, Pauline)  Also pray that God will help them to accurately reflect God’s love and glory to those living in Sihhu and Baojhong.

Thank-you for praying for Kathy-Lu.  She completed another medical test in preparation for surgery.  The next and probably final test is scheduled for mid-June.  Please pray that things will continue to progress smoothly, and that Kathy-lu will be granted an early surgery date.

There were 29 children, 3 mothers, and 4 assistant teachers at the Children's English Club in Sihhu this last Saturday afternoon.  Please pray that God will use the Bible stories and the care shown by the teachers to lead the children and their families toward belief in Christ.

Lorne and Bethany (Philip's wife) completed a standard first aid course this past week.  Please pray for Bethany as she takes these important steps toward application to nursing training.  Pray that God will guide her steps and help her with her studies.

Elyssa has 3 more weeks of classes and exams.  Please pray that she will have a good finish to her Grade 11 year.  Please pray for teachers and dorm parents as they encourage and help the students in these last few weeks of the school year.  Elyssa will travel to be with us in Canada after completing her studies.

We continue tp pray and ask God to provide work for Ethan.  He was encouraged this past week as he found more locations to distribute resumes and to make job applications.  Please pray with us for God to provide suitable employment.
