Gao Lili made a cross-ocean connection to convey the KRC vision
"Kingdom Resources For Christ Taiwan" (KRC) held its first membership meeting on May 22 at Tian'en Publishing House in Taipei. Ms. Gao Lili, the Chinese translator of "The Purpose Driven Life" and the founder of KRC, personally introduced the association's mission and vision to the attendees through an online video call from Pennsylvania, USA.
As the hymn sings: "Open and utilize every heavenly treasure, willingly dedicate it to the benefactor to glorify the Heavenly Father; share the resources of the kingdom of God to make the body of Christ whole." Gao Lili believes that although there is no perfect individual, there can be a perfect team , this is an era in which we need each other. We can become the caretakers of our brothers and sisters, encouraging, comforting, and even vigilant to each other. At present, the main work of KRC is to hold the "Kingdom of God Resource and Culture Practice Camp" every year and to publish the quarterly "Kingdom of God Magazine" that is available for free.
The second cultural practice camp will be held in late October
The KRC cultural camp has been held in North America for more than ten years. It started as a literary camp and has cultivated hundreds of amateur literary writers. Their goal is to submit articles to mainstream print media to loosen the ground for gospel preparatory work. It has also been widely used in Respective churches or institutions participate in text ministry. The second camp in Taiwan will be held at Hsinchu Bible College in October this year. In addition to the text camp, there are five major types of camps including leadership and management workshops, couples’ honeymoon camps, dance to perfection workshops, and joyful creative ministry workshops. meeting.
The founding members of Taiwan KRC include more than fifty brothers and sisters, including Pastor Xia Zhongjian, Professor Wen Yingqian, Vice President of Daosheng Publishing House Chen Jingzhi, Dean of Hakka Theological Seminary Wen Yongsheng, etc. A total of ten trustees and supervisors were elected at the meeting that day. You two, I hope to push the association to continuously move forward towards the vision.
Report 2 Li Yingfang
The dream is about to come true...
In the past one or two weeks, when I opened my eyes, I often thought about the establishment of the KRC Taiwan Association. However, even though my body is tired, I can quickly regain my strength because I know in my spirit that everyone is praying for me.
I took the high-speed train from Taichung to Taipei at 6:30 in the morning. After arriving at Tianen Publishing House, I immediately tested the effect of Internet phone calls + video calls, and everything went smoothly. But later, when Sister Lily shared on the Internet, there was an incident due to a problem with the computer... Thank the Lord, the problem was solved quickly, and the later it gets, the better!
Sister Lily shared that convening a membership meeting is not only to fulfill the Ministry of Interior’s regulations on establishing corporate bodies, but also to truly contribute all our resources and talents. God spoke to everyone present through Sister Lily, and the Holy Spirit personally moved among us.
Thanks to Tian En’s sister Shu Hui (Kelly) for taking the initiative and enthusiastically helping to prepare delicious food. At the "Aimai" near her home, she bought a table full of fruits, cakes, biscuits, juices, etc. There were twenty members present today, but the food prepared was enough to feed fifty people!
Talking about "KRC and me"
At the end of the membership meeting, everyone took to the stage to introduce themselves, talk about the process of meeting KRC and Sister Lily, and enthusiastically share their experiences of participating in camps in the United States or Taiwan. Some people say that seeing committed and mature Christian lives in the camp is the best way to learn; others say that many people who are already very professional and successful are still students in the classroom, and a humble life is self-evident; There were also some students who agreed very much with KRC’s vision and frequently asked about donations; there were also many interesting sharings and interactions interspersed with them to add to the fun of the conference!
Thanks to Father God for His care, the event on May 22 came to a successful conclusion. However, this is just the beginning of Taiwan’s ministry, and the concerted efforts of all saints will still be needed in the future.
