Missions Weekend 2017 The theme of Mission Weekend 2017 (7/14/17-7/16/17) was Across the Street, Around the World. We praise God for His provision and we thank God for speakers encouraging messages. It was a blessing to serve together joyfully with so many brothers and sisters in preparing for the Weekend. We had a great turn out on both days, about 220 on Friday night and more than 90 on Saturday attended the meetings. We distributed 190 prayer booklets during the Missions Weekend. Pray that brothers and sisters will use the information provided and continue to pray for our mission workers. May the Holy Spirit continue to encourage brothers and sisters to spread the Good News across the street and around the world! Mission Plan and Goals for 2018 (1) Inspire the congregation in the area of missions. We encourage brothers and sisters to join cross-culture short-term mission trips. (2) Stimulate the prayer for world missions and mission workers. We continue to provide monthly bilingual Sunday bulletin insert and encourage brothers and sisters to pray for world missions and our mission workers. (3) Care for mission workers locally, abroad, on furlough, or in preparation. We maintain regular contact with our mission workers.

RESOURCES 資源部 Gideon Yong 楊丞堃 Computer Infrastructure Committee Committee members: Chee Wan Woo, Sai Yin Tong, Catherine Yong, Gideon Yong, Michael Chau and Curtis Chiang. The objectives of this committee are to provide technological support to different departments at T4C including the church office, update the T4C website and e-mail system, coordinate the use and maintenance of the sound and video systems, and purchase and install computer software and hardware as needed. We always welcome new members to join this committee! 2017-2018 work report highlights: Curtis purchased and installed security cameras for the building. This will help monitor activity during off hours. He also helped moved over the Wi-Fi hotspots from the old building over to the new building so we have better coverage Holman Chung helped install the access control system so we now can issue electronic key fobs to give certain members 24 hour access. A computer taken from the Eustis building will now serve as a server for both the electronic access control system as well as the security camera recorder James Hollerud helped install a donated TV so that everyone in the hallway can now see the slideshow Paul Krauter and John Yau helped install a volume control for the south sanctuary cry room John Kao helped lead a team to install the old telephone system from the Eustis building. Bus Ministry Committee Members: Rodney Wong, John Kao, Tom Lindstrom The purpose of the T4C bus is to provide ride for church goers to and from T4C on Sunday morning. Six drivers rotate picking up and dropping off the passengers. It is currently serving 2-4 passengers who live near University Ave in Midway and in St Paul. Students from University of Minnesota and Hamline University are also welcome to use the service upon request via email.

RESOURCES 資源部 Gideon Yong 楊丞堃 Last summer, Victoria Chiou helped organize some volunteers to do landscaping around to church and plant some shrubs and bushes around the church to beautify the exterior of the church. As a result of this hard work from her and a whole list of volunteers, we now have a very beautiful front garden for all to enjoy! Production Committee Committee Members: Rodney Wong, Gideon Yong, Curtis Chiang The production committee s aim is to help provide support and help to the various audio visual needs of the church. We always welcome new members to join this committee! Because the previous Eustis purchase arrangement did not go through, we were able to take the projectors from the old Eustis building and install them in 3 new classrooms! Most classrooms now have projectors in them. Not having as many portable projectors has cut down on the wear and tear that was happening before. A speaker system was also installed in both the fellowship hall and the cafeteria to help with smaller events that don t need the large sanctuaries. Communications Committee Committee Members: Hannah Wang, Lulu Kwan, Gideon Yong, Sally Cheng This year a new committee was created to help organize and coordinate the communications across the different platforms.
