In 2008, Senior Pastor Lin Xiongjian and Mrs. Yang Ruojun responded to God\u2019s call to enter Generation Y and pioneered the design of church hardware to meet the evangelistic needs of children and adolescents. In 2010, they started the after-school accompaniment class and enthusiastically launched children\u2019s evangelism work.
