┃ About Us┃

In 2021, the Spring of Salvation was led by Rev. Pearl Liao and Elder Abraham Lin with some others to receive the vision given by God, through the confirmation by God’s word in Isaiah 12:2-3
“Behold, God is my salvation; I will trust, and will not be afraid; for the LORD GOD is my strength and my song, and he has become my salvation.” With joy you will draw water from the wells of salvation.”

We are a Christ-centered, Spirit-led community committed to sharing God’s love and truth, and helping people experience the joy, hope, and fullness found in Jesus.
Our heart is simple: to draw from the wells of salvation—and to help others do the same.
