Christians in Taiwan are praying for repentance and for change in Taiwan’s politics and social issues.

On Oct. 26 and from Oct. 30 thru Nov. 2, Taipei Franklin Graham Festival will be held at Liberty Plaza and will be broadcasted live at 21 different churches located south of Shinju, providing the opportunities for churches all throughout Taiwan to participate in this harvest of the gospel.

Taipei Franklin Graham Festival preparation committee urged the churches to pray for the gatherings for the live broadcasts, and mobilize their congregation to invite others to participate.

In addition, churches that are hosting the live broadcasting have trained staffs to accompany the new converts throughout the five day event.

Immediately after the event, the lists of new convert's names will be sent to Taipei for analysis, and, later, sent to all churches throughout Taiwan for references.
