UPDATE ON HUALIEN
The meeting hall of the church in Hualien was declared safe for use.
The building beside the meeting hall of the church in Hualien was officially condemned. The entire second floor (more than 660 sqm) was purchased 20 years ago by the church for use as a meeting hall. At least 10 residential units on the upper floors are owned by saints. They were given just 15 minutes to get their important belongings. A total of 40 saints lost their home.
About 40 saints (20 adults and 20 young people) who are earthquake victims themselves had been visiting shelters daily to comfort their fellow victims. They sing hymns and speak to them of the Lord’s love.
May we continue to stand with them in prayer.

“Jesus said to her, I am the resurrection and the life; he who believes into Me, even if he should die, shall live;” (John 11:25)
“I am able to do all things in Him who empowers me.” (Philippians 4:13) - For the children’s presentation:
