In the Short-term Israel Medical Mission Trip 2022, God allowed us to serve 375 people and lead 28 individuals to accept Christ as their Savior. Through that experience, we gained a clearer understanding of the needs for pain relief among local Jewish survivors, Chinese workers, and residents, as well as their thirst for the Gospel.
In light of this, we have arranged the 2nd Short-term Israel Medical Mission Trip, which will take place from November 28th to December 11th. Whether you are a Chinese medicine practitioner, masseur, pain therapist, Western doctor, nurse, pharmacist, or other supporting personnel, we need you. We hope you can join our serving team and offer your time and abilities to the Lord. If you are unable to participate, we kindly ask for your prayers for this mission event, praying that the Lord will provide sufficient workers and maintain stability in the local political situation.
The pain relief training program has been held for multiple sessions. As the participants of the training program are all learning with the purpose of local and overseas missions, we make every effort to arrange opportunities for them to participate in local church mission work. Currently, we have arranged for students to engage in a massage care event held on the third Saturday of each month at the Shau Kei Wan Church. They provide massage therapy to elderly friends, neighbors, and church members in the area who are experiencing pain. During the event, the church also assigns caring ambassadors to provide personal assistance.
To equip more workers to serve in mission areas, we have established an auxiliary therapy class focusing on acupuncture and moxibustion. The class teaches participants non-invasive treatment methods to help patients alleviate physical pain. The content includes techniques such as vacuum cupping, moxibustion, gua sha, and electronic therapy devices. Dr. Tsang provides detailed explanations, and during the process, the students serve as practice subjects for each other, benefiting greatly from the hands-on experience.
Shunam House
The Bible records a wealthy Shunammite woman who feared God and honored his servants. With love, faith, wisdom, good deeds and zeal, she built a small building on the wall for the prophet, so that God’s servants could have a resting place and a place of physical and mental comfort in the midst of the turmoil of spiritual warfare.
To this end, we have set up Shunam house to help missionaries and pastors who need a place to stay during their return to Hong Kong, and at the same time, it can be borrowed by neighboring churches for temporary meetings. The house is located in Prince Edward, Kowloon. Missionaries and pastors who are interested can contact us through the mission to enquire
