We are at the end of our first full week in Taiwan. We've learned a lot thus far and are glad to be here. There was a typhoon that came through yesterday, but God kept us safe and provided much-needed rain. We have a couple of prayer requests. We are playing in front of a department store tomorrow afternoon at 3pm. The missionaries we are working with will be there talking to people while we play. Hopefully, we will be able to speak with people after we finish playing, share the gospel with them, and begin to build friendships with people. Please pray for this event and that many people will come, enjoy some bluegrass music, and hear about God. We have also been learning Mandarin Chinese with a great language teacher, Sam. She has been so helpful. Please pray that we will quickly pick up on the language and use it. It would be great to be able to communicate with people in their first language.


This is bubble tea. It's basically tea, milk, lots of sugar, with tapioca balls in the bottom. It's popular in Taiwan. Part of language and culture learning is trying new foods and drinks.
Here we are playing at a church. We played in the morning at the service and in the evening at a special music event they had.
