(HAHK-uh) – On July 29-31, Central Taiwan Taichung Baptist Church, along with several IMB missionaries, will be working with DongShr Baptist Church, holding a camp at a nearby middle school in the mountain Hakka community of DongShr. DongShr is about 45 minutes north of Taichung, with a population of around 70,000 (70% Hakka) with less than 1% Christian. Hakka Chinese tend to come to faith in Christ slowly, as they are bound to cultural and religious traditions, including the common practice of ancestor worship. This effort to re-start the church is important to the community and needs your prayers. Pray for the few Christians at the church to support this camp, for Buddhist teachers to hear and respond to the gospel and to encourage their students to join, and for both churches to connect with local families and begin ministering to them. Pray that ultimately, students, faculty/staff and entire families will turn to faith in Jesus alone, impacting this special Hakka community for Christ and expanding His kingdom. Pray for families to come to faith. One Christian lady who has been faithfully coming for over two years recently began bringing her husband, who is showing some interest in Christ.
