CLS Celebrates Construction Completion

day view de casa
April 26 was a celebratory day marked by thankfulness to God at China Lutheran Seminary in Hsinchu, Taiwan. After a decade of planning and two years of construction, the new 8 story “Theological Education and Church Resource Center” is standing tall and stately. International and local guests joined together to worship and thank God for His work through contributors, and pray for continued contributions toward the $2 million (USD) that still needs to be paid for the construction costs.

Brandnew Library

The Library of China Lutheran Seminary has revealed its brand new and fashionable style on Oct 15. Praise be to God! We really appreciated that a lot of volunteers from church congregation, Hsinchu Branch of Prison Fellowship Taiwan and Drug Rehabilitation Village of Miao-li offered their energy and time with us to finish moving around 30,000 volumes of books one day.

 We are also indebted to the late Dr. Louise Robbert, the wife of Dr. George Robbert, for her willingness to donate her husband's personal library to the new library.  Rev. Thomas Yu, President of CLS, donated his personal library to school as well. We hope all the readers can catch the wisdom of God's words from this theological treasury.

Nuevo CasaThe external hardware of Theological Education and Church Resources Center has been completely. These two days,  on 14th and 15th May, there are over 30 pastors and evangelists of Lutheran Church of Taiwan participating in the training and brainstorming of this meeting. It is a good opportunity for them to know the current condition of the construction project and for us (CLS) to know and understand them more. May them benefit a lot from the training not only brain but also spiritual life.
