In this ever-growing economic powerhouse of the South, our staff has no lack of
work.
Operating according to TEL
distinctives, we work
openly in China, blending foreign and local staff,
serving the registered church in as many ways as possible, not the
least of which is linking new believers to the local church for the sake of
continuity.
We mainly target college students, since they have the most free time, but we
desire to bring the gospel to all people in Guangzhou--and beyond.
We meet people at church, on the street, in parks, on buses, in shops, in
restaurants (McDonald's and KFC are extremely popular), and even at English
Corners (where English-learners meet to practice their spoken English).
Wherever we meet someone, if they have 10-15 minutes and an interest, we share
the gospel
with them. If they have an interest but no time, we invite them
to our weekly Bible studies or to a church fellowship, where we make sure they
hear the gospel.
We teach in homes, in public restaurants (mainly McDonald's and KFC) and at the
local church, whenever possible.
Those who believe are taught a
four-week Bible
study in the Gospel of John to confirm their decision and expand their
understanding of their new relationship with Christ. Afterward, they are
given eight-week's
training in the basic skills needed to grow as a Christian, such as Bible
reading and note-taking, Scripture memory, prayer and witnessing.
We're always on the look-out for those young Believers that God is calling
into greater service. These we train toward a life full of
Reaping and Training Reapers.
