Ministry Overview:
Primary Ministry Focus: Missionary children (MK) education at Morrison Academy in Taichung, Taiwan
The People: The Morrison Academy community including families from about 30 different countries. The school serves students from both missionary and business families.
Major Challenges: The “tyranny of the urgent” as the Johnson’s strive to be a resource to help people with their medical and technology needs. Teaching in an American school makes Chinese language development very difficult.
Prayer Focus: Pray for the Chinese people as many are replacing their traditional idols and ancestor worship with materialism and prosperity. Pray that Morrison students will practice discernment to live Christ-like in this amusement-centered culture.
