Japan or Taiwan?

When we first approached the C&MA about service in Asia, we were told that there were needs in Taiwan and Japan, and we should pray about which country we felt led to serve in. Twenty five years later, we find ourselves with a connection to Taiwan through our role as team leader overseers, coaching two teams working in that country. So, in answer to the question of twenty five years ago, the answer turned out to be "both".

We're of course serving in Japan, but our second trip to Taiwan is ongoing as we post this. As for the scene you see here, this is the Taipei Grand Hotel. While Japan has adopted many architectural aspects from China, the red pillars are distinctively Chinese.
