FAQ on Ministry in USA

                                                Leaving a Regional Conference with Beyond in Malaysia

 

Do you still need financial support?
Yes, we are serving in missions in America short-term, our only wages are from our non-profit company. This will also enable us to continue for another term of service overseas in Taiwan as career missionaries.
How can we help? Our monthly budget is fully funded with BEYOND through June, 2018 but see our wish lists below for other fun, personal ways to help while back in the USA. 

What are your travel dates and locations?
We’ll be working in the S.F. Bay Area (May 26-July 1), Portland, Oregon (July 4-15), and then take a road trip moving to Asbury Seminary, KY as alumni to settle in the community there for the school year. We’ll return to our same sublet apt in Taiwan, in July, 2019.
Why live in Kentucky?
As alumni of Asbury Seminary we'll have access to one of the largest seminaries in the USA with countless opportunities for ministry training. While working as missionaries locally, we will audit classes.
What ministry will you do in America?
We’ll continue serving as missions speakers and trainers at churches, reporting to supporters, upgrading our ministry skills, and coaching local believers.
