Throne Baptist Church
Today was Sunday and we were happy to attend a Sunday service at Throne Baptist Church. There was a little backstory behind how we knew about this church.
On our way to Cijin Island the day before, we bumped into a couple from Canada. It wasn't the first time we met friendly Canadians aboard. However, this couple was from Toronto and they knew about Cornerstone, which is the church we attend in Markham. We were already feeling excited. Imagine how overjoy we were when we learnt that they were also good friends with some of our friends in our small group.
It was unbelievable and we thanked God that they introduced their church to us so that we could have some spiritual nuturing during our trip.
Taiwan Sugar Museum
After we attended the Sunday Service, we went to the Taiwan Sugar Museum. The entire musuem was built on the very first modern sugar factory in Taiwan during Japanese occupation. There were many exhibits about the history of sugar industry in Taiwan. Although some would say that the Japanese exploited Taiwan to get their natural resources, they modernized Taiwan by introducing manufacturing processes and modern machineries.
Most of the original machines were still there and I was amazed by how much they let you touch and experiement inside the musuem.
