Remarks by Dedong Zhongxuan
A few years ago, Pastor Li Xiuquan gave a book to Tong GanThe second half of lifeThis is a bestseller, a good book. On its cover, there is a special title: “From Pursuing Success to Pursuing Value and Meaning.” Last year, when we decided to retire in early 2006, we began to think about how to live a more meaningful life. In 2004, we participated in our first short-term mission trip to Paris, France, and then in April 2005, we had the opportunity to broaden our horizons further by traveling to Germany with five brothers and sisters from North Church. Our over ten-day mission trip from West Germany to East Germany, visiting four cities and many fellowships and churches, left a deep impression.
