Dear Brothers & Sisters,

In such a busy age, we are deeply touched by a hand-made postcard (please refer to the attachment) sent by one of our readers.

"Thank you for publishing such a great book. In order to take it all in, I brought it to the beautiful costal line in Hualien, eastern Taiwan. Listening to the waves, I read one of the paragraphs about 'tears'. I told myself, being able to sense and experience is the biggest blessing!-- Mia"

We are also surprised by the encouragement of Pastor Peiran Hung, who teaches at Taiwan Baptist Theological Seminary.
"Needs in this area are huge and you're doing great. I pray that God will continue to use all of you, and that the Holy Spirit will continue to be with you and bless you!-- Peiran"

Thanksgiving--
1. God has prepared for the layout/printing expenses due the end of July.
2. Jane was invited to deliver a speech "How to become a good gospel preacher" in the July 29 special conference held by Dazhi & Neihu Church Association. More than 200 people will attend the conference.
3. More than 30 people signed up for the "Walk out of Grief" workshop scheduled to be held on August 13 (Wednesday). There will also be evening sessions on August 6, 20 and 27.

Prayer requests--
1. Please pray that more churches in different counties/cities of Taiwan will be willing to co-organize “Walk out of Grief” workshop.
2. Please pray that God will use “Walk out of Grief” workshop to help churches in Taiwan to establish grief & loss of spouse ministries so that brothers & sisters will be able to empathize with those who are grieving and lead them to Lord.

Please also pray that He will show when to hold the special conference co-led by Douglas Hayward Ph.D. (the author of Spiritual Warfare for Christians) and Tom Sappington (the author of Letting God Be Judge), and when is the proper time for Walt Russell, Ph.D. & Marty Russell’s second visit to Taiwan. Please pray that God gives us enough manpower and financial support to hold these conferences.
