KRC is seventeen years old!


On December 12, 2015, KRC held its annual thanksgiving gathering at the "Ha Dumplings" restaurant owned by senior KRC alumna Tong Ning in Xindian, New Taipei City, Taiwan. Pastor Chen Yihao led us to start by worshiping God and offering thanksgiving.


Over the past seventeen years, KRC has continued to be a blessing to the kingdom of God. Sister Li Yingfang, secretary-general of KRC in Taiwan, shared precious photos. Since the first literature camp held by KRC in 1999 by the Christian Messengers Association of Pennsylvania in the United States, it has spawned twenty different Types of courses, economic expert Professor Wen Yingqian, painter Zhou Lanhui, marriage and family counselors Guo Yuanping and Liu Yongling all started as KRC students, became lecturers, and then developed ministries in various fields; writers Mo Fei and lawyer Liu Zhepei also started as KRC students. KRC lecturers started to find the motivation and direction to start a new ministry.


Kingdom resources for Christ! KRC adheres to its original vision, takes Christ as the core, and trains talents for the kingdom of God in all aspects. It has become the cradle of many important ministries in the fields of literature, worship, art, finance, gender, and interpersonal relationships. This vision ignited the enthusiasm of the students present. At the same time, under the reception of KRC in Taiwan, Sister Tong Ning entertained everyone with sumptuous delicacies of Kazakhstan dumplings and ancestral Beidahuang country cuisine. The students felt like a spring breeze and shared many wonderful testimonies of participating in KRC in joy.


"You don't need to bring a kettle or drink when climbing a mountain. You just need to bring a straw, because you can distinguish between people's water." Although this is a joke, it is also the true feeling of Pastor Li Qimei of Phoebe Church. With the size of Phoebe Church, it is difficult to organize retreats and spiritual training meetings on its own. It needs to be like carrying a straw, participating in activities organized by others for training; but the majority of the members are elderly, and the environment and conditions of the hotel are very important. KRC’s camp combines elements such as “training, spiritual upliftment, rest, and connection” and pays special attention to the camp environment, making it the best choice. Pastor Li’s sharing also provides an excellent reference for the cooperation between the KRC camp and the church in the new year.


Not only were everyone warmly surrounded by clouds of testimonies, but alumni also received wisdom to survive the harsh winter. With the theme of "Planning great things for the Lord," Elder Lin Yuanshang shared that the Mustard Seed Society, the first Christian social welfare organization in Taiwan, once lost its vision, its business shrank, and it could not even pay salaries; but later, it increased its salary and assessment every year. , to effectively revive the ministry. He also encouraged KRC to turn visions and aspirations into goals and implement goal management through planning, organization, leadership, and assessment. He invited everyone to pick up these goals and pray every week and every month. He firmly believes that KRC will experience God that people have never thought of. trace! In 2016, the KRC Taiwan Camp will expand cooperation with churches/institutions, with an estimated 150 people participating; the magazine’s readership list in Taiwan, in both paper and electronic versions, will reach at least 2,000; and the Women Inspired bilingual women’s website in Chinese and English will be established. TV…. Are these goals difficult? Not at all, because the Lord Jesus has already promised us to do “greater things” for Him!
