Taiwan is a colorful, vibrant, open and exciting society. But underneath the modern façade, there is a dark side of superstition, fear, idolatry and spiritual oppression. OMF works to bring the hope of the gospel to these deeply religious people.

Our particular focus is on the working class: disaffected youth, "at risk" kids, hurting women, the urban poor, hard working families. About two-thirds of Taiwan's 23 million people are working class. Over 99% of these people do not know Jesus Christ. There are tremendous needs for the gospel and the transformation it brings to lives and communities.

New Book

In June 2012 we published a new prayer guide: Reaching Taiwan's Working Class. This prayer guide contains 14 stories recounting the challenges and joys of ministry to different groups of working class people in Taiwan.

A pdf file can be downloaded here or you can obtain the booklet from your nearest OMF center.
