Remember my post about the church in Taroko? Well, tomorrow I'm headed back there with three American friends to teach English and serve the church there.
It's amazing to learn more about this tribe.... they were once notorious head hunters and fought viciously amongst themselves, and then against the Japanese when they arrived in 1895. But when one small middle-aged Taroko woman ended her search for Truth at a presbyterian church, she became the first Christian from her people, and the tribe was forever changed. Now, the majority of the 10,000 member tribe confess Jesus Christ as Lord. It's my privilege to know them and to return to their church to do a small VBS / English camp program. If I had stepped foot on their land a hundred years ago, the rational fear would be of losing my head; now, my fear is that I will leave more blessed than I am able to bless them.
Will write when we return! We're off to Taroko!
In Christ,
Anna
