Wanny -
There is a church near me, on the est side in the NCKU area, that has services in English. I also think they have the child-care facilities you are looking for - but I'm not certain about that.

PM me if you would like further details.

I do not go to this church but have been aware of the place for quite a few years - it looks like a nice place.

What denomination are you looking for? I know of two Catholic churches that offer masses in English, one of which is taken by a Palestinian priest (the music is AWFUL though).

I can ask a few Christian friends if they know anywhere that offers services in English if you're after a happier denomination :) There's so many churches in Tainan, I'm sure there's at least one!

Thanks for the infomations.
I am not looking for Catholic church. My husband is a Christian. I asked some people on BBS the other day, "dayspring" looks like a nice one to join.

OT, but that's debatable. Depends who you ask. Wasn't too long ago the Papists called the Protestants heretics that will all burn in Hell.

Be that as it may, as OT as it is, I guess she meant to say: I am not looking for a Catholic church. My husband is a ChristianProtestant.

I know them, they're pretty good. You can also try the church across the road from the Confucius Temple (孔廟) in Nan Men Road (南門路). Not sure of the exact address, but if you're standing at the Confucius temple entrance (with your back to the entrance) and look to your right (towards the Klin market - 克林) it's to the left of the Klin market. The entrance is next to the coffee shop you'll see there (and you should be able to see a sign in Chinese that says church, although I forget the name). Pretty easy to find if you're at the Confucius temple. Can't miss it. I know they have an English Pastor and the sermon is directly interpreted into Chinese as he preaches. As far as I know they also have child-care facilities where you can still see and follow the sermon.
When you get there, ask for a Taiwanese girl called Jenny. Her English is fantastic, so she'll be able to speak with you or your husband and give you any information about the church, it's facilities and service times.
