From April 28 to May 2, 2025, Taiwan Adventist Academy (TAA) and Taiwan Adventist International School (TAIS) united to host a spiritually enriching five-day evangelistic week. Filled with the outpouring of the Holy Spirit, the event marked a meaningful milestone in the Taiwan Conference’s 2025 evangelistic mission.
The week was part of the Loud Voice 2025 initiative and closely aligned with the Disciple-Making Evangelism Plan—an essential component of the global Total Member Involvement movement.
Earlier in the school year, Talum Tu, Education Department director of the Taiwan Conference, had introduced this five-stage plan to equip schools for active engagement in soul-winning. The plan includes preparation through health outreach and friendship ministries; seed planting through literature, media, and personal invitations; spiritual cultivation through Bible study initiatives; reaping through evangelistic meetings; and preservation through discipleship training for new believers.
This evangelistic week specifically reflected the “harvest” phase, as both schools came together to host a joint gospel program on their shared campus. Pastor Joseph Tu presented dynamic and hope-filled messages centered on the Second Coming of Jesus. His sermons encouraged students and staff to view life’s uncertainties—such as unrest, hardship, and disappointment—through the hopeful lens of Christ’s promised return.
Quoting Revelation 21:4, Pastor Tu reminded attendees of God’s ultimate assurance: “God shall wipe away all tears from their eyes… neither shall there be any more pain: for the former things are passed away.” He emphasized that Christ’s return is not distant or abstract—it is near, personal, and filled with promise. Jesus actively prepares a place for us and invites every heart to respond.
Students responded with sincerity and faith, and nine accepted Jesus Christ as their Lord and Savior. Their baptisms stood as a powerful testimony to the Holy Spirit’s work and the gospel’s life-transforming message.
“This moment reflects the true mission of Adventist Education,” Pastor Tu shared. “We are not here simply to educate minds but to save souls. Our schools are not just academic institutions—they are mission fields.”
