Ask of Me, and I will make the nations your inheritance, the ends of the earth your possession. Ps 2:8

TAN Mission Report September 2026 – Asian Odyssey

The main purpose of my trip to Taiwan, the first destination on my three-stop Asian odyssey, was to deliver the graduation speech at Charis Bible College’s commencement ceremony.  In addition to the graduation, I taught in the school and spoke at an event for alumni of the school and pastors and partners who support the school.  I also had the privilege of ministering in a church pastored by the husband of one of the school’s alumnae.  My second stop was in the Philippines where I ministered in two churches that are associated with the school and spoke at a dinner for students who are going through the school’s distance-learning program since the school is not yet registered in the country.  In addition, I had an opportunity to meet a pastor whose ministry closely parallels the vision of Teach All Nations – holding training conferences for pastors and leaders to help equip them to better fulfill the callings upon their lives and ministries.  As we were concluding our time together, he humbly asked if I would lay hands on him and impart a blessing upon him to fully accomplish his vision.  The final leg of my Asian odyssey took me to Hong Kong where I taught at the local campus of Charis Bible College and spoke at their graduation service.  During the reception following the graduation, I learned that one of the graduate’s mother and sister and the guest of another student had been so stirred by the presence of the Lord in the meeting and the messages that had been shared that they accepted the Lord as Savior even without an evangelistic presentation.  In every stop, I was warmly greeted by students who were excited to have the opportunity to meet in person one of the teachers that they had been studying under on video tape.  Many came to me to share testimonies of how the lessons I had shared impacted their lives.
