4 Morning Star New York 2009 Missions Trip Morning Star New York 2009 Missions Trip Senior Pastor David Miller Morning Star New York In July 2009, a team of eleven people from Morning Star New York (MSNY) journeyed to Taiwan. The team s main objective was to assist Taiwanese Pastor K.C. Liu with his gospel outreach efforts in Taiwan. Pastor Liu received Christ while studying as a graduate student at the University of North Carolina-Chapel Hill. He came to the Lord while attending King s Park International Church in Durham, NC in 1983, a church founded by MSNY s Senior Pastor, Ron Lewis. In the 1980s, Pastor Liu and his wife, Shih Chia, received a call from God to minister in Mainland China. They spent many years planting underground churches in several major cities, only leaving when persecution from the Communist authorities made them fear for their safety. Their efforts in Mainland China were very fruitful, and they left many thriving churches behind. After spending some time on furlough, in 2008 Pastor Liu began to feel God s call to return to his native Taiwan to begin spreading the Gospel there. In early 2009, Pastor Liu founded Every Nation Taipei Church. Located near the campus of National Taiwan University, ENTC s mission is to reach young Taiwanese leaders for Christ. Recognizing that 95% of all Christians come to Christ before the age of 25, the college campus is a key harvest field for souls in Taiwan. Furthermore, as NTU attracts the best and brightest young people from all over Taiwan, ENTC has the opportunity to reach and disciple the future leaders of their nation. Morning Star New York is a non-denominational church comprised of individuals from over fifty different nations. Since the congregation is very diverse, the pastors at MSNY recognize that they have a call to reach many nations around the world. Pastor Lewis decided to focus MSNY s mission efforts on Taiwan for several reasons. First, he has a rich history of ministry with Pastor Liu, having

Second, the current state of Christianity in Taiwan, with only three percent (3%) of the nation professing Christ, created a sense of urgency to help reach that nation with the Gospel. Finally, Taiwan s strategic location in East Asia and the ongoing improvement in relations with mainland China suggest that Taiwan has a very strategic role to play in the Kingdom of God in years to come. The MSNY team s evangelistic strategy focused on two main areas: the NTU campus, and the business community of Taiwan. On the NTU campus, the team focused primarily on relational evangelism. The team was composed primarily of young people about the same age as NTU s students; it was therefore easy for them to meet students who were interested in befriending Americans and practicing their English. As relationships formed, the MSNY team was able to share the Gospel with the students. By the grace of God, dozens of students came to Christ. In the business community, Pastor Lewis and his wife Lynette used an outreach strategy focused on corporate events. Lynette Lewis is a wellknown speaker in corporate America, and a couple of events that featured her as the key speaker were well-attended by Taiwanese business leaders. In addition, several members of the MSNY team were also successful professionals in corporate America, and were also able to share their testimonies. Many good connections were made, and Lynette Lewis was even featured in the popular Taiwanese magazine, Citta Bella. All of the individuals reached by the team were referred to Pastor Liu and Every Nation Taipei Church for follow-up. Many of the young people from NTU who were reached by the team have since begun attending ENTC, and are being discipled in the foundations of the Christian faith. In addition to Senior Pastor Ron Lewis and his wife Lynette, members of the team included Associate Pastor Bruce Ho, David Tang, Bertina Hu, Maria Guinto, Isabel Lin, Connie Chen, Alana Yost, Sara Piali, and Lydia Velichkovski. The team from MSNY was blessed to have been used by God in the nation of Taiwan, and plans to return again in the near future.

Finally, Taiwan s strategic location in East Asia and the ongoing improvement in relations with mainland China suggest that Taiwan has a very strategic role to play in the Kingdom of God in years to
