Ministry Description

Taiwan is such a modern and unique country with so many different ways to reach the people who live there. Ministry in Taiwan is very interesting because of those unique opportunities to share about God with people. Both Brandon and Brianna have had many unique oportunities to serve alongside the SYME team there, and that is where they have served their time in Taiwan so far. SYME exists as a program that teaches students about God through English. Brandon and Brianna have both taught English and Bible as well as been involved in various other ministries that are a part of the SYME roster. They are both learning Chinese and have been able to ee God open various doors for ministry through gaining a deeper linguistic and cultural understanding of the Taiwanese people.

About Brandon

I first understood salvation when I was four years old. My mother explained in the most basic of terms that there was a deeper punishment for the bad things I had done than I understood.

About Brianna

As a child, I believed I had to earn my favor with God. It wasn't until I was 14 that I was able to see that Christ dying on the cross was something he did freely for me. Since then, I have been seeking after the Lord and his will for my life. In high school, I couldn't imagine doing anything other than being on the mission field, sharing God's free grace with others. I'm so grateful that God has allowed me to be a part of his plan in this way by serving in Taiwan.
