【Announcement】Fellowship concerning Brother Paul Wu’s Memorial Meeting (with Appendix)

To the churches in the Lord’s recovery and the saints in Christ:

Our dear Brother Paul Wu—a faithful and prudent slave in the house of God—having fought the good fight, finished the course, and kept the faith, rested from his labor and fell asleep in Christ early Thursday morning, March 5, now awaiting the reward in resurrection.

A meeting in remembrance of Brother Paul Wu will be held at the conference hall of the Hsin Ji Building (B2, No. 460, Sec. 4, Xinyi Road, Taipei) from 10 am to 12 pm on Saturday, March 14. In accordance with the preventive measures against the recent coronavirus infection*, we are compelled to limit the number of attendees by issuing invitations. Admissions will be granted by invitations only. Your understanding is greatly appreciated. The entire meeting will be live-streamed for the saints who cannot be present.

Brother Paul Wu will be buried at Grace Terrace in Rose Hills Memorial Park, California, USA. Details of his burial will be disclosed upon further fellowship.

Follow-up fellowships will be posted at https://brotherwu.org. The good works that the Lord has done in the saints through Brother Paul Wu are too numerous to recount. Whoever is burdened to submit testimonies in the form of articles, photos, or videos for consolation and encouragement to all the saints, please feel free to do so at the above website. May our brother’s pattern of laboring and striving diligently and magnifying Christ inspire us all to charge forward with one accord in the Body of Christ for the Lord’s interests on earth that His economy may soon be fulfilled.

Respectfully,

Responsible brothers of the church in Taipei
